Fortuitous Fuck-up


Sometimes the photos that don't come out as you planned or aren't as technically proficient turn out better than originally envisioned.  Take this- I was trying to shoot the junk boats (I believe this one was departing for a river tour) in Hong Kong at night.  I was going for a standard long-exposure, but forgot to take the flash off, so I ended up with this surrealish double-expsoure.  Pleasingly evocative of the lights, colors, and movement of the Hong Kong harbor and would be hard to reproduce.
