i love optics. the moment you realize that everything you put between light and an image plane is or functionally can be an aperture is the moment your third eye opens
that's not got anything really to do with the above post it's just something i've been thinking about after spending a solid twenty minutes trying to understand the scattered light in a dark room from a set of mostly-closed curtains
i love shapes and reflections and out of focus lights. maybe someday i will even do something interesting with them
