Light


The fluorescent light does save a lot of energy compared to the incandescent light bulb that Edison initially dreamed up. Once I fiddled with the exposure settings a bit, I was immensely pleased with the picture. There is something in the way a twisted piece of glass gives off light that invites you into its luminescent coils.


The incandescent light bulb - an energy hog, yet a testament to a thousand experiments that were aimed at illuminating people's lives. Edison truly made the night longer with this invention.

City by Night



This is the skyline of Milwaukee as seen at night from open water on Lake Michigan. The reflection of the skyline on the water is something I wanted to capture, but wasn't able to successfully.

Lamp



Although this picture is obviously of a lamp mounted on a wall, I cannot get the word 'sentinel' out of my head when I look at it. The lamp itself is beautifully created with a wrought iron frame and glass panels.

Brass Lampshade


This picture is of a lampshade that I found at a small pub. Little though the lampshade was, it seemed to brighten up the place by just being there.
