Description A plant... er... I'm not quite sure what plant this is, but it was taken at night with a spotlight shining on it (spotlight already fixed to the ground, I did not bring it there and fix it up!). I thought the light gave it some interesting shadows, so I thought I'd snap and see what happens. Turned out pretty alright... glad my hands didn't shake!

Camera: Lomo LC-A
Film: Lomo ISO 100
Photoshop: Border, auto-contrast, cleaned dust & scratches

Has to be a dracaena, I'm quite sure, just can't say from this one what kind of. Not dracaena draco I'd say, but I wouldn't bet my head on it. Very interesting lighting!

really freaky, yet cool effect.

the lighting does woundeers for something is relitily boring in normal light, using the spot light gave it that something needed to stand out and become interesting.

Coolness with the lighting!! I like this, we used to have a plant similar to this in canada... Anyway rambling Like I said the lighting is verrry well done and quite clear for a night shot, you should be a surgeon
