Streetlamps

I never thought that they can be interesting until I start walking in local park.
Now people think I'm crazy for staring at streetlamps :scratch
What do you guys think ?

Really nice. I especially like #1 and #3. Makes me think of giraffes or dinosaurs. Good work. :thumb

I like your use of colors here. I find these more in the abstract arena. I can't help but want to see more of the poles, like where they connect to the street. I know that would introduce too much background noise,and simplicity does speaks for itself.

Thanks for sharing,
Chris

Thanks Richard !

Chris,
I keep looking for ways to include the bottom parts but I just couldn't found a desireable perspective yet. Sometimes I do feel that the streetlamps kinda float out of somewhere. Maybe a different park will produce a better result.
Thank you for your comment.

Nice series and good imagination! I like #3 the best.

Thanks Rich.
#3 is my personal favourite too.

Thanks Rich.
#3 is my personal favourite too. I think your caption serves it well. My favorite, too.

but you have some pretty interesting curvy ones there! We get fog quite often and I like how the fog and the light play with each other.

So, you're not alone! :): :): :): :):

Dee,
Actually we rarely get fog here in AZ.
I've only seen it two or three times in the past few years.
The last one looks like that because the exposure is not long enough to expose the darker part of the lamppost.

I've been to bay area and I have to say the fog is quite pretty & surreal for
us who don't see it quite often. That should make some interesting photo ops.
