Kane Eddington week 10

On this warm beautiful Saturday I decided to do some yard work and after I was done watering the lawn I noticed the interesting shadows my magnolia tree was making on the grass. I really like this picture due to how vibrant of a green the grass is compared to the muted and almost black the shadows make the other splotches of grass. What you really can’t  see in this picture is the water droplets that were reflecting the light from the sun. Overall this picture is pretty relaxing and calming to me and I think it’s cool how all of the shadows are connected to each other in some way

    This is a relaxing photo. Given on the fact that the grass is so dark green, the shadows give it a gobo effect. It does give a good resemblance of one. All coming from just leaves that are on a tree!

    Best sunlight through tree photo I've ever seen! Such a perfectly crisp image of shadow and light! Just like a gobo! Very relaxing! (and how do you have time for yard work!?) Nice commentary and eye for light!

    I love this picture a lot! The amount of patterns that the trees created is just wonderful. I also love the coloring of the shadowed grass. It really reminds me of gobos that I used for my Halloween project. Super relaxing picture...I have to admit! :)

Rosalie Dierking - Lighting Post week 2

The other day I went to a concert at LA Live in downtown and when I went to use the bathroom in one of the nearby hotels, I had to go through this hallway. I was taken aback by how simple and elegant the lighting was. The way the white marble flooring reflects the geometric lights is really gorgeous! I love the choice of warm colors they made and how it make the room feel very cozy despite geometric designs typically making architectural lighting feel more harsh and uninviting (compared to other softer lighting choices). My favorite part of this whole hallway is how they managed to light it in a way that draws your eyes to the painting at the end which helps make it the focus piece of the room. -Rosie

Thalia Hendrick Week 14

For my last blog I decided to choose something more close to home. I have always had a fascination for nature and have always loved seeing blooms from outside my window. This picture was taken last week when I was home writing a paper. I noticed that the sun was setting and a beautiful golden wash was placed over a rose bush I had outside. Since the curtains inside my home were closed, there was no light being let into the room. I thought this image in particular was beautiful because of the contrast of light and darkness in the image. Although there is no light inside the room, it is still being bounced off of the brick wall and other things outside to illuminate part of the doorway and curtain. The blue sky is a beautiful gradient of blue and adds liveliness to the image. I also thought the red of the roses added character to the golden amber and greens in the picture. It brings out such softness when the light from the sunset is very harsh.  Entirely, I loved this image for ev...

Arturo Gonzalez Week 6

Week 6 This week's photo was a picture taken of my car dashboard. I was sitting in my car parked underneath a light as I was about to go into work. I found the combination of colors from where I was reclined very interesting. On the inside there was different Amber glows made by the light coming from above. Outside it was sunset, the sky had a blue ombre color that went from dark to light. The thing that came to my mind when I first saw this was the picture projects and how these saturated colors resembled that of the gels on the lighting fixtures in class and how it would look to replicate on stage. It is also interesting how this combination of natural light with  artificial light blended so beautifully. This moment was unique because it described a specific time of day seen in the shadows and light. It would have been something entirely different at a different time of day or different location. And yes to complimentary colors, I have enjoyed being more aware of light as it...
