Cool long exposures,. the second image looks great with the light beams :)

Great shots. Only comment I'd make is to suggest you crop them a little more tightly. The first has the distraction of the overhead light. The second would need only a little cropping...but I'm probably being picky. Well done.

I liked them both. How is it done?

I'm not sure how he does it, but this is how I did mine. I'm sure everyone has there own slightly different method. I use a G3 set @ F/3.5 ISO50 and an exposure of 8sec. Take the photo and after about 2 sec step out of the frame. Naturally the longer you stay in the frame the less transparent you are.

Neat effect, I really like the second one. :)

Very scary. Of course, there's something frightening about being in an abandoned hospital, period. I shudder to think what kind of dormant germs and other diseases might be plastered to the walls and floors in that place. You'd best consider reviewing your shot record ...

Really nice effect. My only suggestion would be to get the people to wear more dated clothing so that they look as if they are from a time gone by.
