Three Spotlights

I spent four hours for this photo. I hoped to capture people in the spotlights, but for the first two hours, the lights weren't in the right place. I walked out of the building, almost gave up. Instead, I took a short break — and returned. And then, the scene appeared, just as I had imagined.
