Morning Light Outside My Window

For my first lighting assignment, I wanted to find lighting from something and somewhere that I see everyday. Most mornings I look out my window before I start each day. This very morning I took particular notice to the lighting I saw at first glance. I felt an automatic warmth when I saw the sun hitting the tree outside my window. It made the tree itself stand out from its surrounding environment with a warm glow. As I looked to the street behind it, there was a perfect sketch of the tree on the street made from shadows. The sun giving the tree front lighting brought warmth to the outside from my perspective and gave me an energy inside to start my day.
