Been out #night doing street #photography, as in photos of streets. 😆
It was misty out but the light was quite bewitching (even on the estate)
The orange street lights made a better image, so I converted the white light to b&w

Sometimes, I get a beautiful and amazing reminder of how lovely autumn is and how lucky I am to live where I do! But also how I really need to go back to carrying a proper camera.

Is there any specific requirements to use the tag #nerdlings? I might eventually get round to doing, and posting some of my amateurish efforts at #miniature painting & #modelling - can I just use it for anything of that nature or is it something specific?

The composure looked good, with the path snaking off and disappearing, and the hard side light... but the tree is too big I think.

Is this likely to strip the paint (and undercoat) off plastic #warhammer miniatures from the 90's (in case the plastic has changed). They are painted in #citadel paints, but not sure what was sprayed as undercoat.
