6. Golden amber, full intensity
7. Gold tint, full intensity

I was inspired by photos I saw of sunsets in the White Mountains and how vibrant the colors of the sky were without the buildings and air pollution of the city.

9. Cyc: Primary blue, full intensity

I looked up photos to see the inside of Gothic Cathedrals, and there were often very geometric arches and designs across the ceiling, and there were lots of tall, decorative windows. I took inspiration from the darkness of early sunrises and tried to create geometric patterns with the lights through the air.

5. Full CT blue, 70% intensity
6. Full CT blue, 70% intensity
7. Full CT blue, 70% intensity

I wanted to emulate the bright sun that happens at noon and also include the greenery of the jungles in Africa with the green cyc.

I wanted to show how bright and white the sun feels in the winter compared to when it feels warmer in the summer. I wanted to use bright cooler toned lights for the sun, and then I made the cyc blue for the sky.
