On October 19, 2012, the former U.S. President Bill Clinton visited Bren Events Center at UCIrvine to give a speech for supporting Democrats and Barack Obama's president election. Approximately tens of thousands of UCI students and Irvine citizens flocked to the center and I was one of the crowd passionately taking photos to capture the meaningful time with the celebrity. The first reason I decided to take a picture of this moment was due to the uniqueness to watch numerous people gathered in one place and really gorgeous and splendid figure harmonizing with spotlights and shiny display screens on each's cellphone. Especially, the middle of crowds and the platform were illuminated by strong spotlights. It seemed like the intense beam/ray created by the vivid human lamps. Besides, the people in the center remind me of the core of the Sun which has extremely high temperature and dynamic solar energy. Consequently, these human-made ray of lights naturally indicates enthusiasm and acclamation of the crowds. In addition, this photo has the clear contrast of the color as black shadows(surrounding edges) and white light(middle). Through this photo's analysis, I could discover the broader possibility of the new and fresh lighting design utilizing the crowd and human-made lamps. It was pretty interesting and phenomenal to my viewpoint.
Great event, I would have loved to have been there
