Photo Phun Challenge "Night Views"

  Alas, I had been away from this for quite a few weeks now, but I still follow the other bloggers.  These are not from this last two weeks I hate to admit, but are from stored files.  So, if nothing else much is placed, we will at least have an entry or two.



The above photo as well as next few are of Christmas lights at peoples homes around Erie PA.

 Here are a few trees pretty well lit up.



  And here, the whole front yard, all trees are lit.




 Just another view.


  What looks like radiation on old film type camera is actually just an attempt to capture snowflakes at night.



  Here, we have a vehicle snowed in.  The curse of working night shift back in the woods.  Snow plow never made it to clear path before midnight.  Had to camp out at work until we got plowed out in the morning before day shift came into work.


  This was the place where I had worked. The drive way is 2/10ths of a mile back into the woods.



Again, out of season, but is still a sample of some nighttime scare.



Family parish all set up for Christmas Masses.




This one above, I have to admit was not actually a night shot, but was of an extremely foggy day, and this was about 11 AM.



Now this one above has a story. It is not trick photography.  It is actually as I took it. I admit, I did lighten the photo, but it was taken without a flash, just by the ambient light available.  It was really spooky!  The arms would lift the head above the body and then bring it back down.  What it actually is, it is a prop for a haunted house.  When you see the photo taken with a flash, it is so easily seen as a fake, but with the right lighting, it is scary.


  Alas, this last photo was just taken with the camera on my phone, and it failed miserably at catching the moonbow around the moon that night. It was a double rainbow around the moon, but the rings were too faint to pick up on that cam.
