Couple shots from San Francisco

1.

2.

The first image was very fun to capture. I made over a dozen people almost pee themselves. I was crouched in the corner; none of them expected someone to be sitting in the dark. People seemed to be under the impression the place was haunted because everyone was jumpy.

One more, slightly different edit/angle:

#2 is nice, but classic. However, #1 is pretty awesome in my opinion. I love the feeling and the dark mood coming out of it! The only thing I notice that could be done differently is that you can clearly see your lamp behind the table. It would have been nice to hide it behind the table's stand. Other than that, great shots, love them!

Thanks!

It wasn't my lamp, so I did not want to touch it. It was placed there by the National Park service employees.

I have a few with the lamp behind the table, but the angle from this corner was much better than the angle taken from further to the right.

I agree with Marc, both shots are cool but #1 rocks – which is interesting because there's no obvious subject... but it's full of mystery and makes you try to imagine the story behind it.

#1 is a totally killer shot! Well done!

First one is superb

second one is very good

That's exactly what I thought upon seeing the image... but I still like it!

You said the lamp belonged to the National Park service employees... were you in that building for a purpose other than photography, or were you only allowed into the building as long as you were accompanied by the National Park service?

It's Alcatraz.

Thanks everyone. Yep, it was taken at Alcatraz. We took the night tour which I highly recommend.
