Very interesting, JAS. Multiple exposures? Overlays? Just a really cool light play ...

Thanks, Matt! Just get a big canvas on the floor and start dribbling paint on it, while drinking lots of bourbon. Wait. No. Take your camera out after dark and set the the shutter speed at 15 seconds or more and wave it at the city lights. Bourbon optional.

Bourbon??????????????? OUCH!!!!!!! Nice Malt, maybe .... now I see the repeating pattern, was not that obvious at first glance - maybe because there were so many lights in the left corner, and then the strong yellow one up front ... that why I thought it may be overlay. But I can see the pattern now ... (must be the bourbon :wall-an:)

Hey there are small batch hand made Bourbons such as Booker's (http://www.ehow.com/about_4568757_bookers-bourbon-whiskey.html) out there too! The bright side of the photo must be the "Bow", Matt. The "photo" was taken on the pedestrian bridge from Memorial across to Princess Island Park at about 8:00 p.m. so it was quite dark and you are standing facing the skyscrapers with miscellaneous brighter lights on the bridge and in the park.

Thanks Bambi!

Pay no attention to these barbarians, JAS, bourbon rules. Am particular to Jefferson's at the mo.

Thanks, Ed! Talisker is a great whisky!

Wicked, I do not know that bourbon but to me bourbon is always romanticized with its connection to the Kentucky Derby and Mint Juleps. Plus I am pretty sure that is what the film noir detectives always drink. They are not quite so sophisticated as the British "James Bond" spy model with his martinis. :)

Thanks, Marko!

Old trick but very nicely done JAS. You've achieved a real fluidity here that is very appealing.
