Light Observation #4

2/28/20205 – 6:00, Front Street

Objective description: Car break lights shine at me with a beautiful sunset in the background. All the buildings of the approaching downtown area appear in silhouette.

Objective Description: Glowing red break lights shine directly at me yet appear to be muted in a way. The harsh glow usually in the night is not present, instead a light more contained to its source. The sky is lit with almost every color imaginable. Bright blues, yellows, greens, pinks, purples and oranges create a backdrop for the buildings, appearing more as dark shapes than as three dimensional. The buildings directly by me as I drive toward the sunset are washed with a grey blue, taking the color out of them completely. It is serene, as if the whole world is cast in shadow except for the bright colors painting the sky.
