Week 8:: Friday Night Lights

You know you're in love when you get out of your pajamas and back into everyday clothes to watch your fiance hit batting practice in 38 degree weather at 10:00 at night.  Even though I was freezing, my heart became warm as metal hit leather, creating the loud "thwack" that echoes then disappears...one of my favorite sounds! This photo was captured on accident. One of those beautiful mistakes. I clicked unexpectedly and loved the way the light was captured. The rays of the floodlight resemble the sun, creating the effect there are signs of day in the middle of the night. It was almost like being stuck in a limbo. The glare that's shining in the middle of the photo blurred out the batter's body in the background, highlighting the baseballs on the front-ground. I loved that nothing in this photo is highly distinct or outlined, but the light in the corner gives it a sudden brightness that in my opinion makes the game of baseball so magical.

  1. Really great observances.

    One thing really contributing to the feel of sunlight is that the light (an HID called Metal Hallide) is very close to the Kelvin temperature of the sun

    Nice post
