Drains present interesting lighting situations for photographers. Most of the time your only option is to lightpaint or use a flash (unless you just wanna photograph the outfall haha). Here's a few of my drain shots from the past few months; I wanna see yours. Post what you've got!

instead of light painting try setting your flash light up somewhere, not the best option most of the times but it can work nice in some spots

That's some compelling tunnelage you've got going on there! Even some old-timey sewer? Are those systems all in Georgia?

Thanks man! Yes, all of my shots are from Georgia. In fact, they're all from around Atlanta.

3. I think this was the last time I spun wool


4. Ok, so this isn't actually IN a drain


5. Drain party!
