I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ve also realized that having the light directly on you is 1 trillion times different than \u00e2\u20ac\u0153reflected light\u00e2\u20ac\u009d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"> Even worse, some buildings, cars, the tint is so strong that even if you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re getting some lovely light that\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s coming in, the tint blocks most of it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"> Certainly tint is useful if you live in Arizona or Nevada and it is 120\u00c2\u00b0 outside. But, if it is just a moderate 70\u00c2\u00b0, you want as much light, sunlight and direct light as possible!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"> Taking this further as an analogy, I wonder if the majority of civilization, adults kids etc., everyone is just devoid of the light. Everyone is living in Plato\u00e2\u20ac\u02dcs cave, and what we think is light, it just reflected light, refracted light, or worse artificial light.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\t\t<figure class=\"wp-block-jetpack-videopress jetpack-videopress-player\" style=\"\" >\n\t\t\t<div class=\"jetpack-videopress-player__wrapper\"> <iframe title=\"VideoPress Video Player\" aria-label='VideoPress Video Player' width='1180' height='664' src='https:\/\/videopress.com\/embed\/V8srcK6r?cover=1&amp;autoPlay=1&amp;controls=1&amp;loop=1&amp;muted=1&amp;persistVolume=0&amp;playsinline=0&amp;preloadContent=metadata&amp;useAverageColor=1&amp;hd=0' frameborder='0' allowfullscreen data-resize-to-parent=\"true\" allow='clipboard-write'><\/iframe><script src='https:\/\/v0.wordpress.com\/js\/next\/videopress-iframe.js?m=1770107250'><\/script><\/div>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\"><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I have a passion for the light, physiologically literally and let us not forget that photography means painting with light.
