Surreal twilight, ul. Karczunkowska

Yesterday evening, Moni and I returned together from town by bus. I took a hand-held shot of Moni on the corner of ul. Karczunkowska and Trombity. While the surreal twilight colours - the mix of artificial lighting and dusk sky - created a wonderfully atmospheric ambience, the camera shake was too much. So we returned, with Eddie this time, and tripod, to take it again. The old photo's been taken down and replaced by this one - 25 second exposure at f22.


Below: There's a road-maintenance depot further along ul. Karczunkowska. In the evenings, there's always a lot of heavy plant returning from the day's work - moving at about 20kmph. The slow shutter speed makes the excavator look like it's going much faster!
