Week 6 Underwater Lighting


I was taking my usual stress relieving stroll down Disneyland's themed pathways, paying better attention to the parks lighting, use, and function when I stumbled across the fairyland pond and its fountain. It immediately caught my attention as I noticed how well the water played with the lights as a reflector and with the mood of the area. The water helped the colors expand in the pond, filling out space and drawing more attention to softness of the liquid and its movement as the cool colors helped relax the scene as they pierced through the element in swirling shapes. It was very calming to stand in the ponds presence and just admire the beauty. The back lighting passing behind the stones helped frame the pond and continued filling the space with the same tranquility the lights underwater gave through. It has become one of my new favorite spots in the park all thanks to the beautiful lighting of the pond.

  1. Nice image and analysis of light/water and its soothing affects - I always feel that way when watching the water show at the Bellagio in Vegas :)
