Thika Rd light streaks
I had been debating about this shoot in my mind for a while but this time I got to do it. In disregard to the risk factor I headed out solo into the dark armed with my camera and tripod. The shoot took like an hour (8pm to 9pm) since I had to scout for locations.
During this time I only saw one person who upon seeing me decided to change course. I could read question marks on motorist as they drove past……
