Photo Observation

Source: My photo

Theme: Night Life

Description: I took this photo around 1 AM as I was arriving home. We have one light that we keep on to light the walkway and steps up to our door when not everyone is home yet. The white light is harsh to look at directly, but the way it lights the area gives me a warm feeling, espeicially when I’m returning home at unfortunate hour. It does more than just make the area visible, it’s what first makes me feel like I’m home.

I took this photo at a concert at the Music Hall of Williamsburg in October.

THEME: Nightlife

DESCRIPTION: the image is of Karl Kuehn, a member of the band Museum Mouth, playing guitar on stage. Yellow, pink, and red lights are lighting him from behind.

Lighting Observation #5

1. DATE/TIME/LOCATION

02/28/20, outside the 13th floor of Enterprise, 6:00 AM

2. OBJECTIVE DESCRIPTION:

The sunrise was a brilliant blue, with yellow at the bottom of the horizon. The two blended into a very pretty green color, yet the clouds in the sky appeared almost lavender.

3. SUBJECTIVE DESCRIPTION

The sunrise took me by surprise. I was with a few friends and the colors fading into the sky before reaching such beautiful, brilliant hues was mesmerizing to watch.

2) My photo, February 15th

3) THEME: Night Life 

4) DESCRIPTION: This photo was taken of me and my friend in the very colorfully lit basement at a party. The party was celebrating valentine’s day, hence the pinks and purples that were cascading around the room. The photo is blurry and chaotic, an accurate reflection of that night, but the pink lighting is bouncing off of our smiling faces; capturing the joy of having fun with friends.  

Light Observation

1. DATE/TIME/LOCATION

02/26/20, 10:40 PM, Monroe Lecture Hall

2. OBJECTIVE DESCRIPTION:

The brilliant lights from around Monroe hall vs the cool dim lights in Monroe hall created a texture difference in light patterns and temperatures

3. SUBJECTIVE DESCRIPTION

The lights created different brightness and intensity levels and highlighted shadows brilliantly 

Photo Observation

1). December 15th, 9:07 PM, New York

2). Night Life 

3). The blue and red lights are very vibrant and cast a purple-ish light onto the wall, all of the other lights are similar and add to these lights in the center of the frame

Light Observation

1) DATE/TIME/LOCATION: 2/27/2020, 9:20pm, off-campus housing

2) OBJECTIVE DESCRIPTION: The light outside of one of my sorority sister’s house gleamed reflecting on the parked cars in the driveway.

3) SUBJECTIVE DESCRIPTION: The light gave just enough light to see my sorority sisters through the glass on the door. I saw them enjoying themselves, laughing and dancing. I couldn’t wait to get inside and have fun with them.

Photo Observation #5

1.) July 4th 2019, Pennsylvania 

2.) Night Life

3.)The two separate light sources are intensely bright but only give a subtle moody highlight to the edges of the objects around it. This night all my study abroad friends had reunited for a weekend. The composition and light in this image captures the nostalgia we were all sharing perfectly. 

Photo Observation

  1. February 25, 2020. 11:30 PM. 
  2. Theme: Night Life
  3. I’m not much of night owl. Bed by 11, wake up early to start the day.  Thus, most of my “night life” is this: coming home late from work. Not that I mind it. I find peace in a quiet day after a long day. I sat in my car selecting the perfect song for my three minute ride home, I was calmed by the uniform line made by the lamps lighting the Breslin courtyard. However, the direct naked headlights matched my annoyance in having to cross the chilled Unispan (poor planning on my part). 

Light Observation #5

1) DATE/TIME/LOCATION: 2/27/2020, 8:58pm, Walking from Bits and Bites

2) OBJECTIVE DESCRIPTION: The light was hitting the statue of the guy adjacent from Bits, casting a shadow in front of it. The trees alongside the statue hovered gently around the area. The section of the quad was dimly lit.

3) SUBJECTIVE DESCRIPTION: The creepy statue adjacent from Bits scared me as I rushed quickly passed it to head to the library. The trees created an eerie feeling and the dim lights made the section of the quad feel like a cemetery.
