> Those are awesome. You really do have an eye for photographic composition and detail. Thank you for sharing these!

Thank you, too! It's nice to know they're appreciated.


> I think the last two or three on the page remind me of the noctural city photography of Brassaļ. I am thinking of the mysterious "Les Escaliers de Montmartre" in particular, with all its weaving shadows and bright fog in the backdrop down the stairs.

I don't know Brassaļ... Who is (s)he?

I didn't use any filters at all, and they're all taken with shutter speeds ranging from 1.5 to 20 seconds. However, I've adjusted the colors a bit in Photoshop after scanning them, and with this particular photo I probably adjusted them a little more.

I find I always get disappointed when I see the slides scanned compared to viewing them with a slide projector. That's the best way to see them--anything else (paper copies, scanning and printing etc.) results in varying degrees of disappointment.
