Project 365: #172 - Beautiful Swing

Despite appearing in a previous post, Harmon's statue is just too good to only have one. I wanted to change up though this time and use my love of shallow depth of field to show it in a completely unique way. Unlike the last post of the statue, this time flowers had bloomed creating some vibrant colors around it. To me this photo is a sort of memorial to Harmon with the flowers adorning the platform. Additionally, it also is communicating that his memory may fade from our everyday thought but he will never be gone. As I was taking this photo it was awesome to see Dodgers fans surrounding the statue turned memorial. He really did have one of the best swings in the game and had a lasting impact on Twins fans and all of Minnesota.
