Description
One morning recently I went upstairs at just the right moment. The sun was shining and, through the skylight in the vanity area off our master bedroom, light spilled into the room. My eye was drawn upward and I was delighted by what I saw. The walls of the skylight shaft, the square window (distorted by the angle and, later, the camera lens), the blue sky, the light/shadow patterns and reflections on the walls and glass created an amazing geometric abstract. I ran down for my camera and took several photos. In this one I included the ceiling of the small room; it was in deep shadow relative to the sunlit shaft and opening, and when I exposed for the lightest areas, it appeared much darker than it actually is. Rather than crop it out, I decided to color it black as a sort of frame for the central design.
Number 1 of a series of four.
