Week 8: Luzia by Cirque Du Soleil

    So for the last few weeks I have been working a second job ushering for Cirque du Soleil while it is in Costa Mesa with their Luzia show. It's been an incredible experience despite the exhaustion that has come with it. While heading to my car to grab my lunch, I realized how amazing the sky looked in between the rain fall that was hitting randomly through out this week. I managed to snap this picture just as the rain started falling, so it was perfect timing. While I was taking this, I remember when we were talking in class a few weeks back  about how there can't actually be grey lighting and that clouds will sometimes actually contain bits of lavender. It's really amazing to sit and realize that all the color changes that we are perceiving in nature like in this photo, are the result of a combination of light waves that are hitting and not hitting the receptors in our eyes. I also really love the color contrast that we got in this image with that dark sky being juxtaposed with the oranges of the sign, and whites and yellows of the Cirque Big Top.
