In Nottingham one of the clubs, Pink, has a monthly night called Twisted Hearts Club. http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=155001088433&ref=ts

When looking through the photos from the nights, the camera and lighting effects really capture my attention.

The long exposure thats been used on the camera has created interesting and dramatic effects.

It adds a real sense of the atmosphere of the club, you can imagine the loud music along with the throbbing of hundreds of people all in one place.

These photos are from the club night so obviously they are photographed at night. The back drop of the night makes the bright colours in the photograph stand out to the viewer.

I like how in this photograph the background is out of focus and the emphasis is on the person in the foreground.

In this photograph I love the negative space in it, it adds to the atmosphere. Also the shape of the lights going around the bodies adds shape to the photograph.

I love the way the slow exposure has meant you can see the movement in the photograph. The two faces of the same girl. It creates a really quirky, contemporary look to a photograph.

This photograph shows how the use of props can create fun, playful aspects to the photograph. The use of the props gives the feel of the circus, of a show.
