@AJamesMcCarthy@dclange@kottke I didn’t see your reply when I posted mine. You sum it up better - it’s the feeling of being there that you’re capturing. Anyway, really nice work, I ordered a print as soon as I saw it on my timeline.
@dclange@AJamesMcCarthy@kottke No, I didn’t see any of those things. But my point was that the feeling I had while looking at the totality is more accurately captured in this photo, even if it’s a composite and processed.
@dclange@AJamesMcCarthy@kottke But what is captured on a typical cell phone camera or even DSLR is often nothing like what we see with the naked eye, either. I know my cell phone shots were all underwhelming. This photo more accurately captures what I felt like I was seeing in the moment.
@JHLacrosse I remember walking to lunch on my first day of a week-long lacrosse camp at UNH when I was maybe 12. After 4 hours of lacrosse, I was tired in a way I’d never been, and my arms felt like they were going to fall off from getting checked so much. And I had a huge grin on my face.
