Tonight I went on an absolutely lovely date with my wonderful fiancé to Walt Disney World. Our main goal was to see some artwork at the Polynesian Resort and then mosey on over to the Grand Floridan to watch "Wishes" from the boardwalk. Due to inclement weather, we decided to skip out on the fireworks and save those for a later blog post, er, I mean, date (in both meanings).
While en promenade, we stopped in the main atrium to admire the big band that was playing nearby when something caught my eye. I noticed that the entire band was extremely well lit, especially for being under an overhang. Plus, the had very soft shadows on their right side.
Since you obviously can't really tell by that photo, here is an underexposed version that'll really make that beauty shine...
Come on, give me some slack. I'm shooting off of a cell phone, you know...
So the darker photo more clearly shows the beam width and edge. After going down a level to look up at the ceiling, I saw this...
Not helpful, I realize.
From another angle, I could see part of the nose of the fixture which hinted at being a Leko of sorts. There was no diffusion gel and the throw distance was definitely too far for a wash light to be effective, so the fixture was extremely out of focus to create a very smooth, soft edge. While I couldn't walk into the center of the band and look for the black dot to confirm an ERS, I am still guessing it is a 26 degree ellipsoidal with a very dropped lens.
