Light Saber Fight at The Chicago Botanic Garden



Well... not quite.

Saturday's rainy weather did not stop us from going to the Chicago Botanic Garden in Glencoe, IL. The Force was with us and we were able to shoot without a drop of rain.

But right after our photo shoot, an umbrella fight broke out between the best man (left) and the groom (right). In Star Wars tradition, umbrellas were converted to light sabers and the combatants took up their stances. The Dark Side was defeated and the Empire was safe once again.

Photoshop helped in creating this shot... motion blur for the background and glowing umbrellas complete the effect.
