Picture too big or too small, check out the page size options at the top right of the page. Just set it once and forget it.
This was taken on 5th November, Bonfire night or Guy Fawkes night. I had been to a small local bonfire party and was making my way home across town when I noticed this gentleman walking in front of me.

It was dark and the scene was lit by sodium street lamps. I had to resort to high ISO and a long exposure to capture the moment.

The result is grainy and shaky but the moment has been saved, and yes, he was heading for the pub.
