Photo Journal Day 68: Bridges And Steel Wool

in #photography7 years ago (edited)

Last night we went out to try some steel wool on top of some bridges along a set of train tracks. I wasn't happy with many of my shots but after putting them into edit. They aren't too bad.

This shot was a person we had just met. A few people who were drinking saw us and wanted to try it, why not right lol. I like this one because of the ghost effect of the woman and her dog beside the tracks.

The guy who spun seemed pretty adventurous. He told us about climbing a construction crane, which I have done several times. But then proceeded to show us pictures of him on it, lighting off fireworks. Yes lighting fireworks off of the top of a construction crane in the city. I immediately swapped contact info with him lol

Here is a shot of myself spinning on the same bridge earlier. It was still to light out for the effect, so it didn't turn out very well. But after playing with it in edit, I don't mind it.

It was still too early for a good shot in this one too, but I do like the black and white effect.

The second bridge we went to was interesting, as we got to it. A coyote ran out of the bushes right next to us. The bridge was taller and a little more difficult to climb, but was well worth it!

Doing steel wool photo's is becoming something we do on a regular basis and we still have lots of ideas to try out. Stay tuned, cause I will be posting them as we try them out.

That is pretty cool, I like the one with the dog and ghost. Awesome!

Hello there Terry, beautiful photos!
My advice to you is to take a more care about writing and English. It is understandable but sometimes it is hard to get the point straight away.
I believe it would give you a whole new audience out there. (also a link to steemit on instagram is a great way to protect your content here)
Cheers!

Thanks, I was multi tasking a little bit too much when I wrote this apparently lol Cleaned it up and I do post on insta about steemit regularly :) Cheers

i especially love the first photo, the one with the ghost effect! good shots bro! :)
