Description This was taken in Hermosa Beach CA. nears some bars.
I love the contrast of the light against the darkness in the water on the ground and the source light in the alley.
Like something out of a Flim Noir story.

Very cool. I thought it was the moon reflecting off a lake in the thumbnail. Very captivating; great work.

I really like the compiosition and tone in this! especially withthe focal point of the light and the dark lines channeling towards it along with the small pathes of water which add some lighter tone to the dark sections. However I don't have any real crit its a really nice piece although from this view the picture seems a little grainy but that could ust be my computer screen

A really wonderfully chosen subject!
Indeed looking like film noir or, if you prefer more modern approach, it could be seen as somewhat gothic...

This is exactly my kind of photography. Dark alley, a single light, empty. Great shot!
