It's weird how much we pass by these textures everyday and don't even realize them! I was having trouble finding texture throughout the day since the sun wasn't out as much during work, and I wasn't as inspired with the leaf texture from all the trees. As I was walking home from work at night I saw the lamp posts creating this texture on the floor which reminded me of the GAM Gobo G357 "Beams". It's interesting to see how most gobos are inspired by textures all around us, whether its organic, or geometric, it seems like there is a inspiration for all sorts of patterns and textures. It's hard to see the actual fixture itself but its a fairly simple lamp post with a hexagon cylinder shape. Also what intrigued me so much was because it felt like a pattern and color I would see on stage. The amber warmth with the texture creates this geometric sun, almost like the rising sun from the old Japanese flag. I wish my photo could have been more clear, but I was still glad to be able to capture this texture.
Nice image and thoughts on the texture - texture is also created just by the spots of light against the background
