Week 1: Sparkling

Went out over the weekend in the gaslamp district, San Diego's downtown. This photo is from one of the night clubs. It was a birthday celebration and the sparklers identified the servers coming over to the table to give them the alcohol they bought with their bottle service. 

I thought that this showed a great sense of source. Obviously the sparklers are the source of light in this dark room, but I love how it casts the shadows on the people sitting in front of it, the ones obviously not a part of the group. You get a sense of them being outcast, alone, mysterious. While where the source of light is, the sense of celebration and excitement is emanating. The sparkler's light is only intensified by the reflection on the sheen ceiling, making it look like there are double the amount of sparklers.
