I was following Sebastian's feet yesterday on a nightly stroll through our neighbourhood. The title is a reference to a song by DJ Shadow, which is one of our favorites. It is about the wish that one day noone will fall asleep in fear when the clock on the wall approaches midnight.

• Cool shot and I love the DJ Shadow reference! :-)

• Love the pace of directions, lines and planes in here and how it is all contained in that oily-green wash of smudgy color.

• Glad you explained it - I was wondering what's going on. Like it!

• This is a little to artsy fartsy for the Subster to understand. From the comments above it seems to be a "Wow" shot. Think I will leave my more substantial comments to images the Subster understands :)

• I definitely dig the abstract nature of this shot. The haziness and the muted tones immediately call to mind the midnight hour.

• Really does have an eerie sort of atmosphere. Dark and Moody is something I really like in photography.
  I'm not too sure about the green tho? looks a little too "night vision", but then I can't think of another colour to change it for??????

• great abstract. the noise and motion blur add to the overall abstractedness. yes, i just made that word up.

• Wäre ein perfektes Cover für einen Gruselroman. Schön düster und geheimnisvoll. Erinnert ein wenig an die alte "Tatort" Anfangssequenz. :-)

• Endtroducin... is my all time favourite album. Many people quote 'Midnight...' as their favourite but mine is definitely, "Building Steam With a Grain of Salt". I love the words that go over the top of that tinkly piano. It's the ringtone to the 'friends' group on my moby. I think the image suits the title mind you.

• It doesn't really work for me. It's unique and different, but not my cup of tea

• great moody shot .. i can imagine a short film following the shadowy footsteps! ..again, the colour is spot-on!
  & DJ Shadow is easily one of my favourite artists!!

• A nice abstact, which is all the better with your explanation.

• The movement in this shot is great. The colour-tone helps in bringing out that midnight feel. Even though the title is "in a perfect world", the feel of the image is a bit more scary :)
