Last weekend I had the pleasure of visiting Walt Disney World in Florida. It was one of the better trips I've taken as of late. So the first park we went to was Epcot (first picture) and it was beautiful. I had only been to Disney World once and we had only gone to one of the parks then, so the 2nd time around was extremely better. As soon as we were leaving the park, I absolutely had to get a picture of the giant, spherical symbol of Epcot. The way that they light it is brilliant. It looks like the light is coming from the inside of it, but I'm pretty sure they light it from the outside; I just have no idea how. (It might just be lit from the inside. idk.) I know that warmer light is supposed to draw our attention first, but when I look at this, my eyes go directly to the blue light on top. It almost looks like UV light, rather than just plain blue light. It's so bright and attention-grabbing. The other colors just seem to blend into each other for me.
The last two pictures are from one of the rides in I forget which park, but I just thought this was brilliant. These are light fixtures on the ceiling that mimic fireworks. Fricking genius! Seeing all of the different ways the imagineers light up the attractions in the parks and considering the time it took to make it all happen makes me appreciate the power of light more. You could literally do anything with light if you know how.
This is week 6, not week 4. Nice post. The Epcot ball is lit from below for the warm color and from poles away from it for the cool color. I am so glad you are noticing light so much!
