Walking outside a restaurant at Park Place in the twilight just after sundown, I noticed the unique design of the parking lot lights. While the ubiquitous parking lot flood lights were present, I saw an array of vertically oriented light bars scattered across the parking lot. The bars were brightly accented beacons in otherwise dim car filled space. While hard to fully perceive from the photograph, it brought to mind the image of fireflies in a forest. In addition to the added design element, these lights highlighted an interesting aspect of depth perception. While in reality all the same size, the perceived size differentiation of the light bars made the lot seem larger and helped to guide the eye across the otherwise visually dull parking lot.
Very nice observances. A good study in layers of light - not just the bars but the horizon and the higher portion of the sky
