Theme: Large

DESCRIPTION: I think that the length of the shadow due to the angle of light makes the subject look very large and imposing. I feel as though even if the person casting the shadow were present, he would seem imposing as well

2) Flood lights.

3)This gave off a large feeling because it of the many post lights that are on creating a large area of light. It kind of attacks the surrounding darkness, starting some melee. This may in fact be contradicting the large theme, but it suffices to show a large outpour of light reflecting off the ground and each other to extend beyond the angle of light, facing the ground. It is interesting in general and I thought of floodlights when I thought of large. This clearly panders to my thoughts.

What, Where: a shadow on the floor from the sun.

Theme: Large

Description: This picture depicts a large lighting moment in its shadows. In it the photographers normal sized body is stretched to make a abnormally large shadow on the floor. This makes a impressive illusion and gives a distorted perception.

3) THEME: Large

4) DESCRIPTION: Admittedly, a large (no pun intended) part of the bigness created in this picture is due to the angle. However, the lighting really helps. The person in this image is more lit than the ceiling; if it’s not because flash was used than there was front lighting. The way the lighting illuminates his neck almost the same as his face helps to create the illusion that his face and neck are the same surface, as opposed to being at different levels as the actually are. The shadows on the right side of the picture also help make the subject seem larger than life; he stretches beyond where light can reach him.

4.27.2011, 1:00 PM, my room

2) OBJECTIVE DESCRIPTION: I taped an Apollo star gobo over my lamp. The bulb in the lamp at the time was a stained glass bulb. Light was cast in octagonal shapes on the ceiling. It was very dim, although multicolored.
3) SUBJECTIVE DESCRIPTION: This was a lesson in failed experiments. I wasn’t sure if putting the gobo over the lamp would work, I suspected it wouldn’t, but hoped it would. However, the light cast had a very interesting shape, created both by the bulb and the gobo over the lamp.

Lighting Observation 2- Week 13

Posted on April 29, 2011 by previousstudent

1) 4/27/11, 4:22pm, Outside of Nassau/Suffolk

2) Objective: Looking up at a streetlight illuminating the fog

3) Subjective: Walking to class on this dark, wet and dreary day. I looked up at the streetlight and it was so gross outside that you could see the driplet of the fog whisping through the air.

1) 4.19.2011, maybe 4:00 PM or so, a bridge from New York in to New Jersey

2) OBJECTIVE DESCRIPTION: I know I’ve written about fog before, but wow. I could not see anything from either side of the bridge; the entire sky was grey.
3) SUBJECTIVE DESCRIPTION: It felt like I was on a bridge in the abyss. If there’s a line of cars one needs to sit in to get drive in to heaven, or maybe hell, then that’s what it would look like. On that bridge, nothing else existed. I could see ahead of me. I could see behind me. But the moment the bridge ended on either a side all that existed was a thick, impenetrable wall of grey. It was terrifying, depressing, and disorienting.
