st. louis cathedral

..after dinner, en route to cafe du monde, we passed by the st. louis cathedral and since most of the people were celebrating Southern Decadence on bourbon street, there wasn’t that much people around.. so we stopped by and tried taking a shot of this at night.. i propped the cam at an angle on my slippers and bracketed the shot, thinking that the last and longest exposure was done, i took the camera and boom, i spoiled the shot.. or maybe not.. 😀

..view this in mono..

..notice the light blur on the left side of the tallest spire..

Magic !
A wonderful result!

i was just staring at that photo and wondering how you did that, and what it was… how beautiful Rian!!!!

Crazy and creative. In this case a “good photographic accident.” A whole new way to make images!

Very cool result… great creative shot man.

Where is a prince on a white horse ? Or princess in a long white , diamond dress ?
You made such a dreamy castle of this cathedral ! SUPER !!!!

A creative picture for sure! I like the inventiveness you’ve shown by taking this shot. The end result is very dynamic and appealing.

It was meant to be – the spirits made themselves visible to you! Love it.

Looks like a scene from a scary movie. Nicely done.

So was that due to the motion on your slippers…no, I actually like this!

looks like a fairy tale. i think u’ve had a good result 🙂

not spoiled at all! i haven’t seen the others but i love the light scribbles through this – feels energetic.

I’m not sure about the whole slipper thing, but you definitely didn’t ruin the shot. If you hadn’t already said, I would have asked about that technique. I wouldn’t have expected slippers to be involved. Anyway… I really like the result. Great (accidental) job Rian!
