Neat stuff Did you use a ND filter?

Nope! It was reasonably murky in the pub - it's a spit n sawdust type place.

really cool idea, and nice exposure. i would've thought 30 secs would be crazy bright... got job on that

Yeah, it was night time and the pub didn't look like that to the human eye - pool tables are always a good place to shoot though as they're reasonably well lit.
