It’s something of a shame I don’t have more photos of Pasadena City College. I went there for a couple of speech and debate tournaments in college, and some of the buildings appear to have been there since the golden age of Art Deco.

This particular photo was one of my earliest night shots, when my Canon Powershot G3 was still pretty new to me. I upped both the exposure and f-stop in order to get larger corona effects from the lights. The effect seemed appropriate to combine with the reflection pool, making the overall photo an experiment in the ways light reflects and refracts at night.
