It was strangely quiet last night

This is from Thursday night, again right outside our house - strangely quiet last night as they're now a bit further down the road.

Better big on black.

Thank you everyone for your comments and FAVs on Outside our House - very much appreciated. I really enjoyed photographing these road works - got a great buzz from catching the moment.

The steam rising gives it a very ethereal feel. Interesting that they are working at night. Here they would only work during the day!

Super image! I love all that steam and blackness!

@salza Thanks, Sally. The road is closed between 7p.m. and midnight for two weeks. A bit noisy for some but less chaos than being closed during the day.

I love the rising steam. Perfect night shot. I really struggle when the light gets poor but you've nailed these shots xx
