Lighting Observation #6

1) 3/5/14, In Finance classroom

2) OBJECTIVE DESCRIPTION: As I was listening to my professor lecture on car loans, I saw a light just above the white board that turned on mid-lecture.

3) SUBJECTIVE DESCRIPTION: This light turning on was symbolic; it made me hyper aware of the fact that I need to do major research when buying my first car. Though I was already aware of that fact, for some reason, this singular light flicking on directly on the board with lecture notes made me hyper-aware. I also felt really anxious and aware of the fact that real life is approach quite quickly! I felt some shivers, but they passed quickly.

3) Inspiring

4) This picture entirely emulates inspiration. The darkness on the sides of the picture (in the trees and water) pull the observer towards the furthest trees across the lake, similar to the light at the end of the tunnel. For me, the lighting in this picture evokes hope and future. The very clear reflection in the water of the trees and the sky encourages the circle of life; the water reflects the land and sky, which reflects the water, and the cycle continues. The mirror image inspires me to know that things always have their own identity and can be isolated such as land, trees, water, and sky, but also that all of these can be defined in relation to the surrounding aspects. This image inspires peace, clarity, and tranquility as well.
