Day 156: Night Court

Night CourtThis morning I got up and felt like I had completely run dry creatively in terms of this 365 day photo project.  The idea of trying to think of something cool to shoot seemed impossible.  It was a genuinely depressing thought.  And the day passed without much to change my mind.

Then something caught my eye just shy of midnight.  And I had a pretty decent photo.  I felt better.  I was walking home, noticing how damn bright the moon was.  No streetlights were needed.  Not exactly broad daylight but not at all hard to see either.  So I grabbed my tripod and remote and headed back out to see what I could do with that moon light.

Night shoots are fascinating to me.  Everything looks a bit weird because the colors and shadows are all wrong compared to our normal daytime perceptions.  I tried a few different shots but nothing too spectacular was happening.  But while waiting for one long exposure, something again caught my eye.  And that is today's tonight's photo.

Suddenly I feel a lot better.
