City at Night

City Lights, Charleston, SC  © Doug Hickok
(Velvia slide film)

Another one of the images used in the Spoleto Festival USA ticket brochure, one that suggests a lively night life... theater lights, restaurants, cafes, the fluxing auroras of city streets...

or maybe alien crafts landing at the site of an active volcano...

    That's fun, Doug, and pretty wild. A foretaste of what is to come, maybe? :)

    ...I can still remember those days when you had to wait for the film to be processed. It could be a nail biting time, happily though this time it was well worth the wait for a great abstract.

    Remarkable work which changes the night-reality in an abstract picture. I like very much.
