Week 2 Love

I saw these flowers and plants at night. It reminds me of love because the light gives me a sense of intimacy. The floor lamp only lights part of the plants very bright while the other remains dark. This isolation reminds me of film shots in romantic movies, like two characters in love forget their surroundings, and the only thing they can see is each other. The floor lamp has a similar effect there.
I guess the other reason this reminds me of love is the color. I am not sure if that flower is rose, but it looks like rose… The contrast of red flowers and green leaves under dark night is strong. It reminds me the passion of love, but these two colors might not be good combination for lighting, since green and red light will remind people Christmas, instead of love.

  1. awww what a delicate and complicated image! That low light almost feels like a romantic candlelight source and not the scary uplight that so often happens with "floor lights." It's a warmer color and is lighting a very pretty, organic scene that definitely has a cinematic love feel at night. Great!
