The lamp is dented on the outside and the light is reflecting off of these "dimples".

Isn't it interesting that in capturing this lamp Motts that you have inadvertantly captured the degradation of the structure in the background? It reminds me of a surreallistic painting.

I saw "Silent Hill" last week, I'll never look at these pictures the same again!
I'll think, there's a scary monster around every corner! Or in every other picture....

Thanks... I'm not sure, I've seen most of the place and the vandalism has been kinda rampant over there, plus there are quite a few more locations to hit up in the area...

Ooooh, now TORTURE is a subject I know. Trust me when I say that it's just as easy to do in complete darkness as it is in full sunlight, and sometimes more fun (they don't know where you're coming from next!).

The lights are low as an attempt to put as much of the lighting to good use as possible. We do this now, only we usually add a drop ceiling as well. We just did this at my workplace a few months ago. It helps insulate the room as well as brighten things up. We dropped the ceiling to one inch above the rather tall windows.

I think the scene could be rather pleasent. Imagine someone in their robe and slippers sitting there with their coffee and reading the morning paper by the dawning sunlight. Their blue and white thermos by their side.
