Light Observation 3 B

1.) 2/17/11- Approx. 10:45 pm- A street near my house

2.) Shadow of a barren tree on the sidewalk

3.) Trudging home I came across a tree at my feet, not a heavy, large, or cumbersome tree blocking my path, but a scissor slit across the sidewalk, a lack of light, a shadow. Scoping out the sidewalk, it’s littered with these pseudo fallen soldiers cast down at my feet by the ever triumphant lamps sitting high and proud in their victory. Only at night do these cold metal poles trump the taller trees with their broad branches stretching along the road. Yet now, this night the light looms over the barren tree, beating it to the ground in submission.
