Week 7: A Face in the Shadows

While doing work in Eco Grounds, I looked over to see the different shadows being cast onto the floor. I saw a face after staring at the ground for a bit, with the poster shadows as eyes and the trashcan was the mouth. I kept coming back to this portion of light in the coffee shop because the way the tree branches were moving outside made it calming and a bit mesmerizing to look at. The outline of the leaves was not as crisp as the posters on the door because of the distance, which added different intensities. The middle of the leaves shadows was darker and then got lighter as the light dispersed to the ends of the leaves. I also noticed how the overall picture changed a small bit while writing this blog due to the sun moving and/or clouds blocking the sun, which cast different shadows onto the ground.

  1. Great example of why we are so drawn to depth in lighting - light, shadow, color, texture - our eyes are trained by nature, so we need certain things in composition in lighting design
