Lighting Observation
Location: Behind Hofstra Hall, also about 8:45pm on the 28th.
Objective Description: I am in a pool of light, trying to write my last lighting observation in my notebook. My own shadow frequently gets in the way.
Subjective Description: I’m a little irked trying to write. I’m also a little self conscious, thinking what I must look like standing in a pool of light with a notebook, and constantly turning it to try to get light where I’m writing instead of shadow. The light and shadow on the page of the book are constantly changing, and trying to write consistently is futile – as I write, the shadow of my hand chases me, and blocks out everything I’ve written – I can take it only one letter at a time.
