Over the break I went to the island of Capri. On a cruise around the island, we got to go into the Blue Grotto. Inside the grotto is complete darkness when you first enter but when you turn around you see the water glow a magnificent blue color. Thats all you can see inside is the glowing water; the light from outside the grotto comes in under the water causing it to 'glow'. I captured a picture on my digital camera, but even that can't describe what it was like. I would have liked to taken it with my traditional camera and seen how it would have captured the concept of the incoming light beneath the water in black and white, especially since the most important part of the experience is the blue. I would think using a wide-angle lens would have been the most beneficial.
