artificial lights

Sodium vapor, neon, fluorescent, incandescent....a symphony of artificial light. I just tried to forget about white balance, and looked for the most varied combination of colors. I prefer the city at night for this very reason.

  2. I was scrolling quickly by to get an impression of the variety of photos and I thought 'Why did he post a Hopper painting?' Amazing palette in this photograph, it's very satisfying to me.

  3. Wonderful lighting and colors. It's a study in complimentary colors, but has an almost metallic sheen.

    Very well seen and captured.
