This is about 2 hours after the power went out officially. I was bored, and my camera batteries were still functioning, so I set it up on the mantle to take a few shots. It was getting dark at this point, and I needed a long shutter speed to gather as much light as possible. As you can see, the image is still considerably dark (no post), as Irene was busy destroying my neighborhood and igniting the plague of darkness that followed her wrath.
