Church St, Oldham

Wonderful night shot.

Thanks so much Jaap. Not many from my home town on here! Glad you like it.

Regards, Herb

What a smashing shot Herb .. fantastic light indeed .. looked very close for a ghost to go with the footsteps :))

Best wishes ... Steve

Glad you like this one Steve. Took some time back now but deserved an outing here. Now those footsteps.....

Cheers, Herb

Edgar Wallace like...****

Echos of Edgar Wallace or more like Sherlock Holmes. We could expect Jack the Ripper here too -spooky to say the least. You should be on this very quite street coming up to midnight with camera on a tripod. Glad you like it Lothar.

Cheers, Herb

A super night shot, Herb!

Thanks a lot Andy. Good you approve.

Herb

Great atmosphere Herb

Thanks Nick, that is what I was trying to get.

Regards, Herb

A great night shot with a wonderful old time feel to match the cobbles

Cheers Peter. Glad you liked this one.

Regards, Herb

Great shot I like the fact it is not colour more an old movie set and I can well imagine footsteps.

Hi Steve, sometimes a photo is there to convey more than just the scene. Here is such an example.

Regards, Herb .

The footsteps were mine Steve...... I was going to ask Herb to lend me a few quid.

Ah David, it is always good to have you on-board, even if it is to cadge some more money :)

Regards, Herb

what a great atmosphere!!!! congratulations!

Good that you enjoyed this spooky scene of my town Elena.

Regards, Herb

Very moody with the reflecting cobbles, the mono tones make it look like something out of an old film! You can certainly imagine a murderer in the prowl there!

Good to see you here Gudrun. Always good that you approve of my photos and my little leaning to the art of some of these photos. Our imagination, says it all.

Greetings, Herb

Excellent mood in this picture of a street in a rainy and dark night! One exptects Jack the Ripper sneaks around the corner every moment.

More like one of our local hooligans Poly :) As it was, I got my photos and got away perfectly safe. One of those occasions were a friend with me might have been wise. An expensive DSLR on a tripod in these conditions are asking for trouble I suppose. -Very happy that you liked it.

Cheers, Herb

So lovely!

Thanks Cheryl. Another to wet your appetite here.

Cheers, Herb

This is very nicely done Herb. I love the light on the cobbled street and the building on the left. To me the dark shadows give this image such a great atmosphere of mystery and perhaps even danger!

All the best, Doug

Hi Doug, thanks for dropping round. All the conditions were right and I managed to make the most of that with my editing too. Yes, when I look at this now -it does look a bit scary! Would just have liked a bit of floating mist too :)

Cheers, Herb

Timeless image Herb excellent in monochrome love it. TOZ

These places in these conditions as you say Toz, are timeless. Concrete flats and their shared door entrances are not the same.

Cheers, Herb

ps but might be much more scary!!!

Beautifully atmospheric Herb...................the light is just lovely, especially where it's reflected on the cobbles!

Hi Keith, great that you like this one and its spooky atmosphere. Always nice to resurrect one of my older photos here. I have just been browsing my massive collection on my backup drive and noticing on there just how many nice photos are never posted. I am sure you have the same problem my friend.

Cheers, Herb

Great atmosphere, Herb. I really like the PiP too with the tramlines.
Take my advice and never try to walk on cobblestones in your stilettos!

Thanks so much Maggs. Good that you got a chance to see my Polish cobblestones too. I will take your advice in future and remove my stilettos before walking on these. I wondered what was going wrong :)
Keep well, Herb

A very evocative image, very taken by the reflections (recent rain?) on the cobbles and the limited colour palette.

Thanks George, Sorry for the late reply here. Yes, there had been rain that night. Glad you like it.

Cheers, Herb

Wow! I love your presentation of both pictures Herb. The main one is beautifully edited and the PiP has great reflections on the cobbled street!! Two superb pictures....Rosa.

Sorry for the late reply here Rosa. Very taken, that you enjoyed both of these night shots. I must do some more.

Cheers, Herb

Great atmosphere, and wonderful PİP!
I admired!!

Thanks a lot Füsun. Sorry for the late reply here

Cheers, Herb

Ik zie daarginds ook een beetje een FENCE
Dus geef ik hier mijn HFF voor een mooi week einde HERB!

Ah, ha, I never really thought of this fence for a HFF. Glad you liked it.

Belated HFF to you too, Herb

a rainy day - no night ;-)))
