Photographing Halloween Ghosts and Haunted Houses at Night

Oct16

Kathy Peoples of Katydid Photography went to her favorite spot for spectacular images of life size ghost and goblins. Not everyone can create ethereal works of art out of the gauze once used to cast broken bones. Retired city school art teacher Dolores Dragan can, with a Halloween display that stops traffic. Every year, she adds more figures that are patterned after people she knows. It’s a site not to miss!

Here are some of the images we took with a tripod using long exposures. Students also learned how to light paint with flashlights.

We’ll be back here on October 24th from 6PM-8PM , so be sure to join us!
