Apocalypse Please

@Richard_Irwin: Cheers, Richard. Occasionally I'll get inspired and come up with something relevant by way of the written word to tie it together with the image itself. Perhaps I got lucky this time. : )

@Stu: A mate and I discovered this place by accident the previous evening. We made plans to get there before sunrise the following day and capture everything as the sun slowly crept into the picture. This was taken quite a few minutes before proper light appeared. I also love the barbed wire here.

@Inès: Thank you, Ines. I'm pleased that you like it. Thanks for your comment. : )

@Calcifer: Hello Calcifer.

I set the white balance manually and had the shutter open for six seconds on this photo. I think filters are excellent but you can't use them at any time of the day. I used one here because the photo was taken at 6am and there was minimal light. I wanted to get a 'special' effect with minimal lighting. This was an experimental photo and I'm pleased with the results. Thanks for your comment.

@drphoto: Thanks, Dan. Believe it or not (RIP Jack Palance), it was virtually dark at the time this photo was taken. The long exposure and purple filter have given it a completely unrelated feel. I still think I had more fun during this shoot than any other either before it or after it. BTW, I really appreciate that you've taken a look at some of my older images.
