Assignment 7: Night and Color

Lucas Garron

The fountain at Old Union was covered in rings of soap, for some reason. The rings looked a lot like snow, so I went low and captured a sparkling view to go with a focus on the Old Union facade. I set the camera on the edge of the fountain to align the view of the surface / rim, which goes right up to the entrance of the building in this shot. This photo is actually a composite of two photos, HDR-style but for focus. One photos is focused on the rings in the foreground, and the other is of the building in the background. In this combination, the entire image is in clear focus, which adds to the continuous effect of the composition. This version also has the white balance corrected so that the rings are a more neutral white.
