Pastel Sunset - Week 4
I love the soft pastel colors of any sunset. While the picture here didn't quite capture it, I love how the bright pink contrasts to the blue that gradually darkens around it. The pink was far more expansive and vibrant than the quality this picture can show. The blues and pinks give a very serene calming effect and is very easy on the eyes. While most everything is covered by the shadow of the buildings, a bare amount of light is still caught on some of the cars and can be seen reflecting somewhat. Seeing how the light give a rather defined silhouette of the trees, I am reminded of how gobos are used to give this very effect. I also find it rather interesting how the light emitted from the street lamp seems like nothing when compared to the light of the sun, even when it's setting and no longer in view.
