Breakfast - Bonfires





photo


This is a pic I took in New Hampshire - my grandparents built a house there, which they lived in along with my mom and her sister and brother, when they (my mom etc.) were all kids. there's still no electricity there or any toilet - we have to use a somewhat odorous outhouse - but we visit every summer and I really love it there. In this pic, I was experimenting with different settings to get a good photo of our fire. Here, the shutter was open for a long time and before it had finished, someone switched on a flashlight. I thought it would ruin the photo, but it added that neat beam thing across the fire. Very abstract, eh?

photoWhile we're at it, I'll continue with the fire theme - here's another pic I took that night. The flash kind of illuminated the smoke in an interesting way on this pic of my grandma and aunt. The latter (to the left) looks kind of crazed. Or maybe the smoke is really a giant ghost that only shows up in photos and is terrorizing her. Yeah, that must be it.
