some of us from the ealing lip photo group went to visit the how it is installation at the tate modern on saturday and the strolled along the southbank and to the national portrait gallery to see the national portrait prize exhibition (which is really worth a visit btw). i have added a set of the day here.
i know i have blogged some movies and photos of the installation before but how do you photograph darkness? i ended up most liking photos where you can hardly make anything out as they seem somehow experientially closest to the feeling in there or i like these feet you can make out.
this shot of the staircase looks pretty sci fi
the photo above was taken on a 30 second exposure but someone was walking towards me in the dark and so i had to move the camera and myself before both got kicked! the effect is kind of interesting...

Jonny - the pictures with the people softly materializing out of the darkness are incredibly beautiful. Their presence is very strong.
