2/52: 9/1/09 [Ghost], originally uploaded by reynard.
The second of my photos in the 2009:52 series. The evening before this was taken, it was very foggy and there were some great opportunities for photos. Typically I didn’t have my camera with me.
Not to be caught out again, I took my camera with me to work the following day and tried to take a photo of the rather austere and gothic church opposite Birkbeck, just off Gordon Square (whose name escapes me at the moment). I got my shutter speed totally wrong — it just stayed open. I gave up on the photo and turned off my camera, not realising a picture actually had been taken.
I like this — it looks like a ghost, spooky. Whether pressing a button and waving your camera around really counts as taking a photo I’m not quite sure!
