I admire the work of Larrie Thomson, a night photographer who does colored light photos of structures in ghost towns. This night at Toadstool Park was a good opportunity to fire through some colored gels and see what I could get. You end up shooting several to make sure the exposure works; it won’t do to blow out the red channel here. I like the negative space the appears around the spires, and the motion-blurred stars within that space. The texture that appears within the spires is fun to explore.
