Chloe A- Lights

 This photo is called Lights and it was taken at the Alabama Bandmasters Association Competition in Birmingham was taken with my Minolta MN35Z camera. The sun was just starting to set and the large stadium lights were coming on, and I thought “why not?”, so I took some photos of the field, some people, and the lights. I edited this one by cropping most of the sunset out and increasing the saturation, but I didn’t touch it until the Nik collection assignment. For that assignment, I put the Color Effex filter on, lowered the brightness, and increased the shadows. This helped stimulate an after-dark-type feeling, as well as a mystery effect to the shot. It could be better if I got more of the lights in the shot.
