I took a trip up to Mount Carmel, Pa this past weekend...in the heart of the Coal Region. I did a lot of photography in the area, both in the daytime and at night.
What I enjoy about night photography is how a subject that looks ordinary by day can transform into something vivid and colorful at night. I also enjoy how reflections on the wet street can totally change the composition.
