Lume shots
Well, I had my UV torch to hand and my camera coincidentally next to me AND it was the classic 10 past 10 so I zapped the dial and snapped!
It looks crummy because it really needed proper setting up ie tripod and timed release &c. But who cares? I couldn't be arsed to get off the sofa and it would have been gone 10:10 by the time I set it up...
One day I'll try properly!

Somewhere I read that the lume is an organic compound - is that true and why? There are plenty of non-organic luminous materials out there...
