Firelight: The Only Moving Light

A rustic night scene dominated by fireplace light. Only two electric lights are dimmed to their lowest setting; the main light comes from the flickering flames in the fireplace, illuminating the surrounding stone mass in warm orange-brown, with shadows swaying with the fire; the further space sinks into deep gray. The firelight creates constantly changing light and shadow on the rough surfaces. Avoid: using electronic simulated flames, having bright electric lights on when there is firelight, making the fireplace a closed type where the fire is not visible, letting other indoor lighting overpower the firelight.

一個以壁爐火光為主的質樸夜晚。電燈只剩兩盞開到最暗,主要的光來自壁爐裡跳動的火焰,把周圍的石材量體照成溫暖的橘褐色,陰影隨火勢晃動;更遠的空間沉入深灰。火光在粗糙的表面上產生不斷變化的明暗。避免:使用電子仿真火焰、在有火光時開著明亮的電燈、把壁爐做成看不到火的封閉式、讓室內的其他照明壓過火光。
