Night Photography by Gregory Holm






These photographs demonstrate a technique of lighting homes at night using only available traffic lights.
In the first photograph I used a ratio of 60% green light, 30% red, 10% yellow.
In the second photograph I used a ratio of 50% green and %50 yellow
The exposures were roughly 12 minutes. But due to the limited duration of each colored light and the passing cars, each shot took nearly an hour to complete, using a stop watch and "country shutter."

Michican Central Depot Train Station Tour

Completed in 1913, the building is of the
Beaux-Arts Classical style of architecture, designed by the Warren & Wetmore and Reed and Stem firms who also designed New York City's Grand Central Terminal.
This is one of the great American architectural and industrial wonders, and currently threatened by demolition. When it was built it was the tallest train station in the world.
