Everything Looks Different at Night - Day 30

Streetlights Through Sheer Fabric    

Lights from the Parking Lot   

- make interference patterns through the sheer curtains at the window.    

Interference patterns are fascinating to look at - they appear very different if you focus on the sheer curtain fabric or if you focus on the lights in the distance. In the dark, they show a prismatic color effect as well as the splitting of the rays of light from the intense lights behind the curtain.

The Neighbor's Porch     

The Neighbour's Front Porch   

- through a screen of bushes.    

Alders and willows and birch and poplar grow between the neighbor's place and ours. Later in the season, the leaves will fill out and we will not be able to see each other's houses. But for now, there is a neighborly sharing of nightly brightness back and forth.

Summer Chairs     

The Summer Chairs Are Out Of Storage    

- and waiting to be set up tomorrow.    

Floodlit and out on the deck, the summer chairs look inviting, as if they are waiting for someone to sit down and relax.      

Everything Looks Different at Night - Day 8

Porch Light   

The Porch Light  

- says "Welcome Home" in the dark.     

A porch light means a lot of things. In stormy weather, it guides you to the door. On warm summer evenings, it provides comfortable light to help keep the good times going. A porch light is safety, security and a beacon in the dark.

Twin Floodlights   

A Double Bulb Floodlight Set

- that is turned on by motion activated sensors    

Mounted on the side of a building, motion activated floodlights give instant light in areas where it is needed, but only when light is called for.
