Grey Skies Above

The skies are as grey as steel wool today, beams of light break through the clouds sending the light meter all over the place. This is the first instance in which I had to lock down the dial to compensate for the fluctuating needle, and only after careful calibration was I ready to snap the picture. By shaking the camera I hoped to capture the beams of light, and use their intensity to brighten the shot I had taken. It is fascinating that light will still travel through grey clouds at such a high intensity. One cannot be foolish and think the opposite while setting up the perfect shot.
