Lot's of Lovin'

Couples and a dog or two gather during a mass display of public affection for the taping of a city tourism commercial in Love Park.

Best High School Gym in the World

That might be a slight exaggeration, but I've never been to a gym with that much natural light pouring in. I vote for all sporting events be held in this gym from now on. Of course, only late afternoon games on sunny days.
I spent too much time goofing around with the light and shadows that I needed to stay and extra quarter to make an image for the paper. The sports department doesn't have room for the artsy stuff.
