Recently, the electricity temporarily went out from my high-rise and I  was stumbling in the dark around my apartment. I used my phone's led to  see some light and happened to stand next to my DVD movie stand when I  came upon this:
        
     


Thought it looked nice, so I decided to reconstruct the situation, this time with my Pocket 2 at hand.

It's nice to get these happy accidents to photograph later on :-)

Great observation  Well captured

Nice spot.

Thanks, at least something nice came out of the electricity cut. :-)

Maybe a reduced electricity bill too?   

Very cool find.  Glad you were able to recreate it and then capture it with the P2.  Great job.

That certainly counts as a plus, especially now that there have been reports of the electricity being super expensive at the moment here in Finland. What it does detract from though is that I have no way to power on my Xbox during the cutout..

Thanks. Luckily it was easy to recreate as I knew exactly my spot, the circumstances and the exact spot of my light. :-)

A crisis of the first magnitude

Yeah, I *might* be a bit addicted to gaming

But no worries - in case of these worst case scenarios, I have my trusty old GameBoy Color with a magnifying glass light at hand

You're most welcome.    Glad you took the time to recreate and share it.

Wasn't a biggie, the effort and time needed wasn't that big. :-)

I still appreciate the time and effort you put into, however much it was, and very glad you shared it with us.  Always looking for something creative.

Stuff like that drives me crazy until I find out what exactly is doing it.  example "phone, watch, keychain"

I know the feeling, sometimes happens to me too :-D Luckily this was easy to find out as I knew the exact spot and conditions of this happening :-)

I love it when a plan comes together (even better when it originated from a happy accident)

We all need those every now and then.

True that - some of the greatest ideas ever have begun from these happy accidents.

Exactly.
One of the things I like about making music.

Great image! Always on the lookout for things like that
