This is the 1904 Dare County Courthouse in Manteo, NC. I took this photo while we were waiting for our walking ghost tour to start. Ironically, this was the first stop on our tour! This building is allegedly haunted, but i don't remember the details behind the haunting.

I was surprised to see that this photo was shot with a 1/2sec shutter speed. I know I didn't have a tripod on me, so I imagine I shot this with the camera resting on a stationary object nearby. I can't imagine I shot this handheld with such a longer shutter speed.

My memory about the details of this photo are escaping me because the most memorable event that took place the night this photo was taken was when we almost got arrested because our ghost tour guide took us on private property they did not have permission to take us on!

I added the HDR affect in Topaz Adjust. I'd imagine you're sick of hearing about Topaz Adjust by now. Trust me, they don't sponsor me or anything like that. In fact, I doubt they even know I exist.
