Week #8 - Crazy Lights

I had the opportunity to catch the fireworks at Disneyland this past week, something I usually miss, and there are a lot of interesting shapes and whatnots that the fireworks can produce. I noticed that the of course, the colored ones received the most attention because they were much more engaging. I think it's because people are so familiar with "white light" that they aren't as in awe compared to when they are exposed to colored lights. One aspect during the show that really caught my eye was the glow that the fireworks created in the sky in accordance to the fog. It has a weird hue or tint to it that does not quite read white. I am reminded of a time my roomate and I thought there was an event happening at the Tustin Marketplace. We live in an apartment close by and we saw really bright green lights that were being shone at the marketplace pretty late at night. So, in an attempt to join, we drive over, only to realize that the street lamps and the fog were creating a much brighter light, and a different color as well! How is it that the light is projected (diffused?) so much more by the fog, and that it created a different color as well? That really amazed me. But around the fireworks in the picture, there is a glow that is being created. I am not sure if that is fog or smoke, but either way, it emphasizes the light a lot more.
