...that when you see someone else holding one of your powerful flashlights, you get to take in the full brightness more so that just controlling and holding the beam yourself? Odd how lights seem brighter when other people use them.
...that if you turn a flashlight on, tailstand it on a flat surface with the beam hitting and ceiling and then drag it, you can see the beam on the ceiling appears to move less than how far you are sliding in when viewing it at its base! That is so weird! It looks like two dimensions where the flashlight base in one dimension (viewed from the bottom) is moving more while the other dimension (the ceiling) is moving less. So friggin weird! lol
I found out it has to do with human behavior and/or physics. The illusion will not happen if the light is truly erect all the time, as expected. It seems we have a tendency to point the beam in one position even if our light(hand) moves. When I put my light in a small plastic can before moving it the illusion disappeared.
When the beam is pointed up in the sky and I walk away from the light it looks like its right over head.
My eyes will color-calibrate to a very broad range of color tints. My warmest incan will appear plain white... until I shine a pale white tint LED next to it.
