[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Walking through any park alone after dark creates some fear, especially when you're stupid enough to have £2000 worth of camera gear out in the open.

Everyday it's been the same old thang on my block
Ya either workin or ya slangin cocaine on my block
Ya had to hustle, cuz that's how we was raised on my block
And ya stayed on ya hop until ya made you a knot

good one Brendan. You succeed in acheving a great atmosphere. The warm colors of the night. Those people seem to be follow by the others on the background. Great also to have the sign showing the 2 walkers.

Thank you for bring me and let me dreaming in a park I don't know but can be all the parks over the world, included mines.
With some shivers included :-)

hello Brendan,

I like your originality in photography. It is everytime a surprise which one you will post :)
i like the strange colour and the mood you create with it ! a moviescene.
greetings, inn

Hi Brendan, fantastic night atmosphere here....
your trademark......the sign of the road, the arrow...
Yes, it is dangerous to walk alone in the night through the park...but today..it is dangerous also to walk in the centre of a town at midday...unfortunately......
Very good result!
ciao!
Valeria

Hi Brendan,

A classic post. The mood is perfectly captured! The colors are really nice and those ghostly figures are scary! Indeed a beautiful work, taking the risk of bringing out your camera!

What a neat shot, Brendan mate! I wasn't sure at the thumbnail stage but it was definitely worth cracking open... Lots of subtle things there to make out in the gloom...like a little GREEN light somewhere. Nice work!
