Lighting Observation

1) DATE-TIME-LOCATION: 3/4/21- 10:55 am

2) OBJECTIVE DESCRIPTION: Walking in front of the Adams Playhouse on my way to Emily Lowe Hall.

3) SUBJECTIVE DESCRIPTION: The sun is fighting its way through the clouds in order to peek out and brighten the ground below. Wind blows the clouds but it is not enough to reveal the sun. While the sky remains a milky white with splotches of gray, the squirrels jump amongst the trees. The birds sing back and forth, anticipating the coming of spring. Some how their chirping illuminates the morning’s gloom.

Light Observation #7

DATE/TIME/LOCATION: 3/27/2020, 4:45pm, Living room in Brooklyn

OBJECTIVE DESCRIPTION: The sunlight from outside made its way into the living room on top of furniture being occupied by people and produce. Oranges sat on top of the table and with the shadows the overcast developed indoors.

SUBJECTIVE DESCRIPTION: With the slightest moments of inspiration, the fruit sitting on top of the table decided to join hands with the depressing mood the sun was barely setting. The dark, gloominess of the day made its way into the apartment and had an opinion about everything. The light was anything but uplifting.

 

Lighting Observation

Thursday 6pm, my dorm.

My dorm room on an overcast late afternoon

The sky is gray but the sun is desperately trying to shine through. With my blinds up my small room is still well lit. Every object has a grayish hue to it. Everything is calm.

Light Observation #7

1. Tuesday, March 11, 2014: 8 am

2. I woke up (rather late, unfortunately) and didn’t think it could be the time it was because it was rather dim outside.

3. I looked out the windows and just felt exhausted. Not because I hadn’t slept, but because the overcast heavy sky just felt sleepy. The clouds muted the world around them and everything felt heavy. It was almost unsettling, the claustrophobic feeling that came across me with this heavy, bright but not bright, dark but not dark feeling. It was strange – just not right. I kept waiting for the sun to shine through or something so that the world wouldn’t seem so shut off and desolate.
