Week 4: Signs


Every time I have have to come back down to school, my dad takes me out before dropping me off at my apartment.  After winter break we ended up going to see the space shuttle and the natural history museum in LA.  I'm kind of a nerd and I freaked out pretty hard when we got to see the dinosaurs.

The thing I really noticed about the lighting in the museum was the different way that the warm lights focused on the skeletons contrasted with the natural light filtering in from the windows throughout the building.  It separated the exhibits from the people walking around.  The lights also highlighted the details of each of the exhibits.  Without the appropriate lighting it would have been difficult to see the cracks and divots in the bones.

  1. Nice comparison of kelvin temperatures - the color different between the outside light and the warmer lights on the dinosaur really helps to create the detail you set

    Nice post
