The First Snow Fall
I found the first snow fall of the season raining upon me as I walked to the bus loop from the computer science building on campus last night. Not a little, but quite a lot. It was sticking, and also quite wet, I soon realised as I pulled out my umbrella in hopes of staying dry. Typically quiet around the science and engineering end of campus at 11pm, the snow further absorbed any noise from cars leaving the parkades and others like myself leaving labs late in the last week of the term.
Despite all the work this term has brought with my rather heavy load, I am feeling rather pleased with the progress made so far on my computer graphics project. Last night I created a spot lights in our “game” as well as implemented a vary crude shadowing algorithm. (Who knew rendering even fake shadows would be so difficult and slow.)
It seems it snowed over night. The ground is white, and traffic is no doubt a mess in the lower mainland. All the signs of the first snow fall of the season.
