It was on a steel castle in a scrap yard, apparently they melt steel for fun in said castle. I was there shooting a motorcycle for a potential magazine feature.

I’d love to find a job north of Warrensburg after school. Everything I need is there - Whiteface/Gore for skiing and a plethora of lakes, ponds and streams to fish/boat on.

You got me going with the light painting stuff now Jim. I think I’m starting to get an idea of what the hell I’m doing, can’t wait to try a car sometime :ahh and I mean that somewhat sarcastically…it’s been really hard to keep reflections and light trails from screwing up the few shots that I’ve tried.
