Date/Time/Location: May 8th/ 1am/ My House
Objective: I am watching TV late at night.
Subjective: There are no other lights on in the house. The blue light from the tv is the only thing breaking through the shadows. Everything outside of the beam is seen as a silhouette. The colors of the room are constantly changing as different frames flash around the screen.
Date/Time/Location: May 6th/ 8:00pm/ Off Campus House
Objective: The living room of an off-campus house.
Subjective: There is a pale, blue-ish light emanating by a lamp on an end table. There is a ceiling light in the kitchen that is emanating a light yellow light. Together it is creating an interesting wash of the area, feeling very urban on a dark evening. It feels like a scene from a movie in the early 2000’s.
Date/Time/Location: May 4th/ 4:00pm/ Garden City Town Hall
Objective: A dimly lit hallway.
Subjective: It is creepy. There are old ceiling lights that are white and flickering. The entire hallway is covered in a thin layer of shadow with people constantly walking through. It creates a feeling of mystery and anxiety.
Date/Time/Location: May 1st/ 2:00pm/ The Library
Objective: A window overlooking the south side of campus on the 9th floor.
Subjective: The campus almost looks like it is small, as everything can be clearly seen. The sun is high in the sky illuminating all areas. There are so many trees that it almost looks like a forest. Each tree gives off a vibrant green color, which compliments the light blue color of the sky. It feels almost as if I’m in a different world.
Date/Time/Location: April 27th/ 8pm/ Campus
Objective: The streetlights are lighting the area.
Subjective: Each light has an amber shade that colors the area, giving it an appearance as if the world was being viewed through a sepia lens. It is comforting and calming as opposed to the abrasive essence of the fluorescent lights that can be found in the other parts of campus.
Date/Time/Location: April 20th/ 12pm/ The Pride Pavilion
Objective: A bright, sunny day.
Subjective: There is not a single cloud in the sky, the sun is shining brightly through the trees and leaving little to know shadows. The grass is as vibrant as the freshly spawned leaves on the trees. It is peaceful and energetic. There is a luscious atmosphere, perfect for a day off.
Date/Time/Location: March 10th/ 4:30pm/ Jones Beach
Objective: A sunset on the beach.
Subjective: It is mildly cloudy, the sky has a light gray tone to it. It nearly matches the gray tone of the sand on the beach. The water is dark, with the setting sun’s reflection perfectly projected on it. There is a mirage of red and yellow circulating around the sun, piercing through the clouds. It is reminiscent of the song, “California Dreamin’”, by the Mamas and the Papas.
Date/Time/Location: March 4th/ 4:00pm/ Eisenhower Park
Objective: The sun is setting in the field.
Subjective: There is a purple horizon as the bright red sun is setting. The sun’s rays stretch across the entire field, cutting through the shadows that are now covering the area. Darkness is quickly coming as the sun goes to its rest.
Date/Time/Location: February 24th/ 11:00am/ My House
Objective: The sky is dark gray, there is rain coming down aggressively. It is washing away the snow that was previously on the ground. Everything is dark, yet it is only the morning. There is a gray tone all over the area.
Subjective: A rebirth of the land, washing away the tainted ground to make room for the grass once again. It has a somber yet relieving atmosphere, almost as if the earth is taking a shower.
1) DATE-TIME-LOCATION: 5-4-2021 – 7:00 pm – My Kitchen
2) OBJECTIVE DESCRIPTION: The colors from the sunset shine through my kitchen window as I eat dinner.
3) SUBJECTIVE DESCRIPTION: The salmon rays shine through my window after a long days of classes and I feel grateful for a peaceful moment as I pick up a piece of pasta. I admire the diffusion of the light as it, almost disgustingly, passes through the dust in the air creating a singular rectangular bean from the window, but I don’t mind why it looks like that as I admire the magic.
