A friend took this photo of me on June 15th 2018 in Secret Caverns located in Howes Cave, New York.
Theme: Single light source
Description: To say that I’ve never quite experienced anything like what I experienced that day in Secret Caverns would be quite the understatement. While there were certain opportunities to experience moments of natural lighting within the caves, as we delved deeper, light bulbs were utilized so we would not lose our way. The way in which the light would reflect on the rock formations was quite a beauty to behold, from the vibrant colors that were emitted to the pure sense of awe and wonder that would be evoked as one continued down the winding passageways. The area depicted in this photo was the first one encountered after walking through a long passage without any light. The source of light present emanated from directly behind me, which is evident from the shadows cast down on the ground in front of me as well as my face (and much of my body for that matter) being kept in shadow as well. The most pleasing sight in this photo for me is the slight around of red coloration that is emitted as the light reflected off the rocks behind me (above my head) and the way in which it shined on the rocks immediately surrounding me only added to my child-like wonder and amazement. This moment reminded me of just how many of the earth’s natural wonders we take for granted every day. This planet we live on is host to a vast multitude of natural wonders and beauties and to be able to bear witness to one of them that day proved to be quite the thought provoking experience.

3. I found this wax figure of Charlie Chaplin particularly interesting because of the lighting. Chaplins’ posture and half shadowed face makes him look deep in though or conflicted.

Single Light Source
The lighting is shaped into a box shape, with very distinctive edges, so that it is easy to discern where the light is hitting. It illuminates Roxie (my dog) in such a way that she appears both angelic in nature and like a beacon of hope. Due to the brightness of the light coming down, it creates a starker contrast between Roxie’s head and her surroundings, reminiscent of a sewer grate being removed over a dark area of the sewer system, only this is a much nicer vision (though the smell probably isn’t that different).

Description: The lighting in this picture was set up to be neutral constant for the one-act play festival. This fits the theme since there is only one source of light coming from the right side of the picture.
2) Found the image from Pinterest. The photographer is Julia Hetta, a Dutch photographer who is a graduate Gerrit Rietveldt Art Academy in Amsterdam. http://artfucksme.com/julia-hetta/

4) DESCRIPTION: It took me some time to find a decent photo that only had one light source. First I had picked a different photo by the same photographer, however I was worried there was actually another light source involved. I liked this photo not only because it meets the requirements of being one light source, but it has a nice soft feeling to it. This feeling comes from the color scheme of the photo and also how the light hits the model’s face.

Description: This is the iconic album cover for Queen II. The white light source seems to be above the band members and creates an almost baleful feeling. Due to the shadows cast over the men, we can’t see their bodies or eyes, just the outline. The diamond formation also adds to the “Easter Island Head” motif.
