The Deck – Week 50

On December 17, 2010December 17, 2010 By themichaellamcollectionIn 2010 Deck, Photography

After three successive monochrome postings for the Deck project, I decided this week, that regardless of what the weather was like I wanted a coloured image,and I finally got something in keeping with the season, Demerara Mutual Insurance company lit up their building very nicely, and I took a few images at night to try and capture the spirit 🙂

Here’s the resulting image. Demerara Mutual has it’s main office on Avenue of the Republic in Central Georgetown, to the right of the photo, you can even see a portion of City Hall.

Hi Michael
As usual, this photograph is in keeping with your usual high standard
Christmas is my very special time of year and this photograph of a section of Georgetown, so beautifully caught on your lens, adds to the joy which the season brings to my memories
Warm regards
Cecil

Georgetown can be dusty and hot and cluttered and unattractive, but somehow, at night it can just become a jewel. Especially when the right photographer gets on the job 🙂

  I agree with this statement, I find downtown GT to be so much more pleasant at night.

    Thanks Jaclyn. Pleasant as in pleasant to look at, but the crime rate might be higher 🙂

Beautiful shot. Hope all the heat from the bulbs does not cause it to burn. Brought back memories of the mid to late 60’s when every building in Georgetown or should I say that area tried to outdo the other with the lights.

Nice pic! I’m looking to experiment with long exposure. Will be happy enough to get anywhere near this.

Lovely, Michael. I love what the reflections do for the composition. I hope you as well have some holidays coming – I’m looking forward to a couple of weeks off work. Either way, I wish you the best for the New Year.
