Altar to the universe
I usually bring my own camera along, after giving my primary attention to make sure everybody has their capture technique working, setting up the low level lighting on the church, there was a lull and I had some time to shoot some images of my own.
We began at sunset.
.
Then looked for Comet Pons_Brookes near the setting waxing moon. This image was already posted in lunar section.
.
This is a wider field version of the same scene.
.
This was at our second and final location. I set up some low level warm LED lights for the group with a 3:1 contrast ratio on the two sides of the building. The group lined up between the lights and the graves. I played part of the prelude to Michael Jackson Thriller Video. Lot's of ghoulish moans, groans and screams.
.
This is one of my images taken late in the evening.
.
Enjoy
