"These are unexpected images to film photographers, (I was one myself, and still adore the media and hardware). My desire with digital was to push the boundaries beyond film, and see what it could do. Where could you go in a landscape beyond reach of human illumination. I have always loved night photography for its surreality, and unexpectedness; the Colours of Night."
