Too cloudy for the bat signal.

I can see the obvious candidate for the skyscraper it would shine onto

Very impressive monochrome shot Charles.    I was going to comment about Batman but I see Mr. B beat me to it.  

Nice pic - the roads in the foreground look well jammed with traffic

I'm not sure which building that is from this angle.

That's the Brooklyn Queens Expressway. It''s always jammed.

Holy cloud reflection! Time to head for the Bat cave

Funny. The clouds and darkness just reminded my of it when I was there. I have to go back on the 4th. Hopefully the weather will be better. I'll get some nice landscapes and the Brooklyn pigeons won't attack my drone.

Hew was nowhere to be found but his spirit was there.

Perhaps you needed to fire up that big light.

If I only had one it would be something to catch in the sky.

You could always build one - https://www.instructables.com/How-to-make-a-BAT-signal/

I have a theater light and there are cutouts called cucoloris that we use in front of the light to create a Ventetian blind effect or other things on walls that would work in a Studio. If I get a model that wants to play Bat girl that could be fun.

hahha,   I will watch out in IG for that one.

B and H sells them but you could make your own. Ifind patterns and print them on transparencies and put them in front of spot lighting. Trying to think of a model that would do it. I have one that has a poison Ivy costume. I will post herwhen I'm in the office.

I'm sure you did. I will post some of a girl that has some comic costumes. She does Poison Ivy. I don't know if she has Bat Girl. I think she likes to play the evil parts.

Here's Poison Ivy. It's as close as I got to Batman.

Nice,  and thats quite the back ground too.

It's a warehouse that was turned into an art space. They let Graffiti Artists decorate it. We rent it to shoot models. The scenery is repainted every year.

Thats a really good idea.     Some of the towns here have graffiti weekends where they paint the sides of shops etc like that,.  You get some really good work when it's organised.

This group does the same thing but their headquarters is used as an artspace and event room.

Nice capture and edit!
