One reason I like photography

Film and I guess digital capture can see things the eye can't. You can adjust to low-light, but it will still appear dark. Photography collects light and piles it on top of itself until you can see more in a photograph than you could have ever seen in person. That is one reason I enjoy photography more than any other visual art. I love the mystery and apprehension that comes from low-light photography. Here's an example from the other night. The sun had set, the moon was rising and there was a pretty nice balance of light leftover from the sunset, and the reflected light of the moon.
