Light Observation

Light Observation

Wednesday, March 1st; 9:35am; Lighting Class, Emily Lowe Hall.
Morning sunlight through the window and coming through my red water bottle to create a beam on my paper.
As I was sitting in class, I looked down at my notes I noticed a red tint on my paper. At first I was confused as to where it was coming from, but then seeing my red water bottle next to me, I realized it was the sunlight outside coming through the water bottle to create the red light. I found it really fitting the timing of this observation in particular, especially since we’ve been talking about gels and additive and subtractive color mixing. The water bottle provided as a gel in a sense, and it made me wonder what other colors were used to create the water bottle: was the light I was seeing on my paper created through an additive or subtractive process? What colors wasn’t I seeing? All these questions I thought to be very serendipitous to topics we were discussing currently in class.
