Mariscal Mine Ruin-Big Bend by night
Another night image from my Big Bend trip. The actual ruin of the mine as painted by spotlight.

I had hoped to do more painting with flash but the position on the steep hill and large area made it easier with the spotlight.

A very neat effect. Captivating image.

Nice job. It looks like the ruins of a European medieval castle.

The perspective does make this appear more like a castle than a mining facility. This one isn't as compelling as your last two light painting images but it's still a fun image. Thanks for sharing Darren. :wavey:
