As I go to school everyday, I often forget that UCI is built around a canyon side that is filled with nature. This fashionable bird is giving me a side profile that is beautiful to watch. The background sky provides a blue wash with dark contrasts of shadows and light from the homes and trees. The lighting is able to vividly capture the soft lines of the bird. Being positioned lower than where the bird stands, this upward lighting gives me a haunting, shadowy feeling of anticipation. Will the bird go into the light or retreat into the darkness?
