Sense of Place

I recently went on a ghost tour that took me to the Castillo De San Marcos (the fort) at night. It wasn't my first time going to the fort at night but I had never really noticed how different it was. I see the fort almost every day and never think to much of it but at night it was ominous and  eerily beautiful. Two nights later I went back at 1am to try and capture that feeling. I used long exposures not only so the pictures would turn out bright but so that you could see more then the naked eye would usually see. I hope these pictures help convey my message.

This picture shows the erie beauty I was talking about. A lot of the fort is lit but it still has its dark corners.

It was very dark in this area of the fort, there are no lights. I like this picture because it shows some beauty that your eyes can't usually see.

The fort towering over someone.

During the ghost tour they kept mentioning orbs in pictures. While I was at the fort I was also asked if I had seen anything or captured any orbs in my pictures. This picture had some cool lens flare that I suppose could be mistaken as an orb so I thought it would be interesting to add.
