Photo Taken in Littleton, CO on December 9, 2017 at Approximately 3:40PM MST
|
A few weeks back, my family and I took a trip to Littleton, Colorado to visit my ill great grandmother. Just behind her residence, was a park with this beautiful lake and forestry pictured above, surrounded and lit by the Colorado sunset. Looking at a picture like this, it is easy to focus solely on the water and trees that are at the foreground of the image. However, I personally appreciate the effect that light has on this photo. Without light, the photo would just not appear the same. Without the beautiful ombré sunset in the image's background, none of the object's in the foreground would have the same effect. The trees would not be lit in the same way and the lake would not glimmer in a colorful reflection of the sunset above, as it appears. While light may not always be credited for playing a lead role in our day to day lives, this photo has demonstrated to me that it is responsible for creating much of the beauty that we often take for granted in the natural landscapes that we live around.
Very nice image and post, we will talk a lot more about foreground and background in this class and you have nicely stated some of its properties. Make sure for the other blog post that you use pictures you've taken that week, this one is totally fine but in the future use new pictures
