I have a fascination with subjects emerging from darkness.
It gives off the visual feeling of a studio lit low key image, but in a real word setting. If you know your camera and surroundings well enough it can turn normally boring images into epic set pieces.
This image is an excellent example of just that. The spot is world famous with street photographers (hence it is always crowded). But, I have yet to see any images of the area presented like this piece.
A proud and very lucky moment for sure.
