Light Observation 3

Wednesday, February 13, 2019 – Outside of Vander Poel Hall
The sun had just started to set, creating a periwinkle color in the sky. The trees were striking against this backdrop, appearing almost black in comparison. The lamppost lights had started to turn on, with one having an almost subdued neon green hue to it. Each of the main elements within what I saw seemed like the opening shot of a tragedy or horror work. Despite the fact that the colors I saw weren’t the typical dark and/or bloody lighting that is often seen within the genre, it had a ominous nature about it. The darkness of the tree seemed like a shadow that didn’t belong, almost making the whole scene appear as though it had been filtered the wrong way. However, the lamppost made you realize that the color scheme is correct, as it glowed in a eerie, underground hidden tunnel, torches along the wall, kind of way.
