Bizarre
This lighting is in a video game and looks very bizarre to me because I cannot really find a clear source and there are many strange shadows. It is not life like and is just weird to look at.

My mom took this picture on rooftop bar in NYC and while it might not be lively as a nightlife. I feel the use multiple colors of light coming from different sources helps capture feeling of a nightlife photo

To me, nightlife is bright, flashy colors all shining together at once. Its not organized and looks a little bit chaotic, but the atmosphere being filled with saturated colors makes it feel dream like. The dim night sky contrasting against the neon signs below it also just brings the night to life and makes you feel alive.

Theme: Nightlife
Description: This picture was taken at a concert I attended with a close friend, for a band called The Rose. The photo was taken right before they were going to start-around 8 pm that day. Concerts do a good job of showcasing what night life means to me. Concerts are usually the only reason that would push me to stay out that late and forego a good night sleep. There are multiple different colored lighting happening here. All the lights are vibrant pinks, reds, and blues in the otherwise dark venue. There was a lot of movement in the lights coming from the stage which only added to the liveliness and high energy of the place.

Theme: Night Life
Description: I chose a photo of the Capital One Arena in DC in the middle of an ice hickey game since they all take place at night. Time of the day aside, the lighting fits this theme since the entire arena is dark in the background, the only lights seen are the ones shining on the ice, and the effects stadium managers use to instill energy into the audience and the fans watching from home. Without fun effects and fun lighting in sports games, I feel that the energy would be diminished entirely. Lighting makes lots of things possible, but with vibrant colors and quick changes, it makes sports games a whole lot more fun at night when a lot of people start to lose energy, and become more tired.

Concerts feel like the epitome of “night life” to me, maybe just because I attend so many of them. This picture was taken at a concert for a band called The Maine – one of my favorite bands – on The Rooftop at Pier 17 in Manhattan, which is an outdoor venue. The multicolored stage lights mix together into this bluish-purple that is reminiscent of dusk or midnight. That string of lights in the background is the Brooklyn Bridge, and behind that a building with window lights on is visible, but what I find cool about the whole image and particularly those parts is that there’s a slight blur to the lights. It gives the picture a hazy vibe that I think characterizes night life perfectly.

Night Life
The street lights convey the vibe of a quaint town and work to establish almost a fairy tail setting while strolling down the street. Although its night, the street lights combined with the headlights on the cars create an even wash of light across the entire street. The sky is also a breathtaking view as the dark navy blue clouds roam in the the majestic blue sky. This moment exhibits the ultimate cute night out on the town.

Description: My friends and I had spent all day at a competition and even though we were exhausted, we still had a hell of a time on the way home. The icons on the car’s dash and bright lights of the bridge create a contrast stark with the dark interior of the van. (this was also the driver’s first time through the Boston area, so that was fun)

Cold
The white light mixed with a tint of blue taking over this space makes it feel cold and barren. It feels like an abandoned and mysterious place. The absence of light also plays an important part in this picture because the darkness creeping around the edges of the frame make my mind associate this with nighttime which is colder.

Theme: Cold
Description: I chose this photo because the lighting and operation of cryo therapy chambers make everything around them far below freezing. The cold makes it so that your body’s survival instinct kicks in, and blood flow and chemicals in your body start changing, and once you step out they slowly return to normal. The lighting encompasses this same cold feeling, the blues in the background and the white with hints of blue from above the chamber bring out the smoke. Everything is made to look like ice, and the lighting sells that feeling even more.
