WEEK 3:DOWNTOWN POMONA


On Friday night I headed to downtown Pomona to see a concert. Before the concert I decided to head down Main Street. The street was quiet as the lights began to turn on creating a calm and romantic atmosphere. As the sun set, I noticed the unique Spanish architecture of the train station that began to fade into the night sky. This picture clearly shows the angle where light hits the atmosphere. When the scattered light loses blue light, the sunset is filled with orange and red wavelengths. Within the picture, two sources of light are seen: the sunset and the street lights. The streetlights add yellow glowing ambers of light into the darker shadows. The streetlights add enough light to keep the architecture from getting lost into the darkness. Even though there are few available light sources, it still creates a striking image and adds a feeling of mystery.

  1. Really great image and post!

    Very nice analysis of what is going on with color and angle and how it affects you emotionally :)
