I imagine most can relate to resorting to a cell phone, lighter or some other quirky or less than ideal contraption for illumination. Or simply using lights in unusual ways.
Last night I was flashing the faces of mannequins along a spooky wagon ride through a pumpkin patch, to freak out my kids of course. The other day I was able to get situated by using the glow from my wrist watch, about as bright as a nearly dead glow stick. Sometimes the source can be at a distance, like using a street light to silhouette what I need to see.
Seeing through murky water is also good fun, especially with a light strong enough to punch through to spot a few monsters trolling the shallows. Which reminds me of how awesome glow-bobbers are. Nothing beats a hard strike making a glow-bobber dart all over like chartreuse lightning under the water.
Plenty of times I have used lights as pointers or to more easily reference what it is I am talking about. At other times a flashlight is as good and entertaining as a fidget spinner. I suppose the list is endless.
What about you? Any odd sources or interesting uses?
