Light Abstract

Knowing I needed to shoot a picture today, I arrived at the pool with camera in hand. Once my laps were done, it was time to hunt down the day's capture. What to shoot? I've already photographed the pool several times. I've taken pictures of the chairs, the stairs and the rafters. Ah ha! I have not taken a picture of the lights! While loading it into the computer and adding the frame, I was reminded of how fascinating light really is. I went out to several websites in search of a great quote about light and the more I read, the harder it was to choose! Not only is light fascinating, but the things people say about it are fascinating as well. In the end though, I settled on the first one I read, and I will leave you with this thought from "Peace Pilgrim". "For light I go directly to the Source of light, not to any of the reflections."
Cool abstract

@daveanajao Thanks Dave- I'm holding the camera, pointing upwards, camera bottom on the wall, looking up at the light. (It's underneath the light to put it more simply.)

@karenann Thanks Karenann! It's all in the perspective. I found the quote by typing in Light quotes in google. There were so many to choose from!
