2) The artificial street lamps lighting the NAB.
3) Approaching the NAB for rehearsal, I saw how the orange-yellow glow of the street lamps played off the shiny surface of the building and contrasted with the bright white fluorescent light coming from inside. It felt clinical in a way, but warm. Something about it fostered introspection. It made the bright light in the door, generally something positive and promising, look unwelcoming.

2) The noon-time sun reflecting off the snow in front of Constitution Hall.
3) The sun at noon was strong, and my eye was unaccustomed to the brightness after days of cloud cover. Walking out of my building, I was struck by the brightness of the sun reflecting off the snow. The light-colored brick of the graduate building caused the whole scene to blend together. It felt abrasively cold (emotionally speaking) and very jarring. The brightness felt out of place in an area as developed and urban as Hempstead.
1) Today (Thursday February 3rd, maybe like 5PM) Outside bits
2) Sunlight striking the side of the library as it was setting.
3) As the sun was setting, it cast an amber light upon the mighty Axinn Library, the towering edifice of Hofstra University. Bathed in a warm golden light, the library looked inviting and safe rather than cold and oppressive as it normally does. The light fell in such a way that only the library was lit, all the other buildings on campus were in shadow, but the library stood like a beacon, bright against the otherwise dark campus. The reflection of the setting sun off the widows created an aesthetic glare. The library looked beautiful in a rare warm winter light. It almost made me want to go in and study.
1.) February 1st, at 12 pm, in fludhing queens in a bed room
2.) The sunlight was coming through a window with a shade covering. The light was shining down at an angle and hitting the floor in a thick golden color, where dust was floating through it.
3.) The feeling that this moment was representing was hope. The beginning of a new day with many opportunities.
1a.) google images
2a.)this is a cold feeling, with a misty feeling. Not so much cold as in winter, but like brisk fall morning.
3a.) The feeling that this photo expressed to me was loneliness. Like waking up alone, and going outside to feel some peace, but it does nothign but remind you about how lonely you are.
1b) google images
2b.)this is a cold feeling based on the colors, the simple black and white room also represents the coldness of the room.
3b.) This to me also represent a new beginning, but in a negative way. similar to above, but instead of a opportunities, they are closed off.

THEME: Cold
DESCRIPTION: The interrogation room is dark, but the blueish-white light from the long row of windows casts light onto the detainee and the American flag. It shows how the room is emotionally cold and is most definitely not a happy place to be. Since the light is shining on both the flag and the detainee, we are led to believe that he did something against his country.
DATE-TIME-LOCATION: 1/26/11; 5:35PM; Outside Emily Lowe Hall
OBJECTIVE DESCRIPTION: Light on side of Davison Hall and Barnhard Hall cast shadows through trees onto Adams Quad
SUBJECTIVE DESCRIPTION: It was dark out as we walked past Emily Lowe Hall. The amber lights lit up the area and reflected off of the white snow. The pristine sheet on Adams Quad was marred by shadows of the trees breaking up the white snow. The shadow eerily looked as though it would crawl across the rest of the snow and attack us.
DATE-TIME-LOCATION: 1/26/11; 5:30PM; Outside New Academic Building
OBJECTIVE DESCRIPTION: Light on side of Emily Lowe Hall and light in parking lot reflects off of ice in front of stairs of New Academic Building
SUBJECTIVE DESCRIPTION: It was freezing cold as we walked outside of the New Academic Building. Shining straight at us was a bright amber flood light used to light up the parking lot at night. As I saw the amber light cover the white snow and shimmering ice, I began to feel warm, as though the light would soon melt away the ice and snow. The amber light set the ground aflame.
1) Outside my house- taken on iPhone 4
2) COLD
3) This photo can be seen as cold for the obvious fact that there is an obscene amount of snow, about two feet, on the ground. This photo can also be seen as a cold image because of the effort that needs to made in order to make it up to the front door and the contrast with the shadows and the use of “low key” lighting. All the snow shows makes you feel removed from the destination. We can also see that the houses in the background are the same and have that cold detached feeling about them.
What, Where: One of my old photo projects. Storage room in my high school; a florescent light against something blue.
Theme: Cold
Description: photo was, and still is a hobby of mine. I love how the angle of the picture and the lighting can make something look altered or wrong in a way. The red in the room was the reason for taking the picture, but I later realized it had a blue tint due to the florescent light. The combination of light blue tint and dark spots in the picture gives me the feeling of being cold. Some agree with me, and others say the red takes away from that feeling. Regardless of the knowledge I was sweating in the boiler room, I still get a chilling feeling.

1) 1/30/11-10:00pm-My backyard
2) It’s completely dark out, at the end of the yard there is a wooded area. Two spot lights shinning on the snow that is covering everything, you can see the thick cigar smoke in the light as it slowly dissipates.
3) It was a late night outside so everything was dark there was snow covering everything the snow had a glaze over it, there was little light coming from the surroundings and two spot lights on the house shinning on a 45 degree angle away from the house, these lights showed the glaze on the untouched snow. The woods were considerably darker then the yard area, you could see the reflection of the light in animals’ eyes as they scurried above the snow. After lighting a cigar the thick smoke could be seen through the light and gave the atmosphere a relaxing yet slightly spooky feeling. The smoke in the light made it seem as if something completely unexpected was going to happen suddenly.
