Halloween 2004

Here are some pictures from the Halloween party in South Bend. This year, both Larisa's costume and mine were essentially completely homemade and turned out quite well, if I do say so myself. The pictures around the bonfire are all existing light exposures of about 8 seconds; I was trying to catch people and motion and avoid nasty nighttime flash images. For the most part, those pictures turned out surprisingly well; most people don't move much in 8 seconds, so they appear sharply in focus. Those that do move seem to streak across the image.
