Week Six - life lesson

I took this picture at the end of this week on a Friday. Life has been very difficult and trying this quarter for a bunch of reasons and it all seemed to turn around during this weekend; around the same time I took this photograph. I thought it was an awesome picture because it captures the lighting and colors of the sunset on the water in between the houses as well as the dark shaded palm trees. I love how the angle and intensity of the sun affects EVERYTHING else in the picture; it is all dark and silhouetted. My favorite part of the whole picture is the lights emitted from the cars passing by. I thought of how life is so unbelievably busy but if you look beyond the chaos, there is beauty and purpose to it all. When I saw this setting I ran for my camera immediately because it lit my life lesson this weekend.
