Have you ever wished that you could take a screenshot with your eyes because cameras just aren't sufficient?I'm taking a walk around the local park; it's showering right now- I've got an umbrella, I'm fine. It's let up a little bit, but a minute ago I saw just the most beautiful effect. The rainclouds blocked out most of the moonshine, creating just the darkest shadows. And with the rain letting down so heavily it created just this incredible mist effect. And then, this park, it has these... Very orange street lights around the, uh, the sidewalk, going around the central grassy area. And in the dark, with every surface so covered in water, and with the shadows so deep in all the places the light didn't directly touch, it created these beautiful, just... Glowing orange highlights everywhere. The lights themselves... Blooming through the rain. It was absolutely fantastic, and it lasted for about five minutes, and... I don't know if I'll ever see a sight like that again.
Sometimes you come across a moment, when you're really paying attention to what things look like, that's just beautiful. Sometimes that moment is once in a lifetime and sometimes it just, sometimes it's regular, like looking out at the city lights from atop a large hill, right as the sun goes down and the sunset starts to fade. And sometimes it's, uh... Sometimes it's streetlights on a dark night, as it's raining.
