Description
Being able to identify, understand and modify light is one of the most important skills you can master in photography! When you can harness ANY available light effectively, you can turn your everyday, mundane scenes into something magical and awe-inspiring, get more creative images AND make you feel inspired to pick up your camera every waking moment! Plus, knowing and understanding light will help you feel confident shooting in ANY type of light, at any time of day, so you’ll never have to break out in a cold sweat because the sun comes out during your midday session? Of course, we need light to take a photo (since without it we would only have a black frame!) but going beyond simply seeing light as something that you need for exposure will allow you to convey depth, set the mood and add emotion in our photos. In short, it’s that magic ingredient that lifts up your images, and take them to that elusive “next level” status. That’s why, once you have mastered shooting in manual mode, getting sharp focus, the right colour in your images (etc) then I strongly recommend learning more about LIGHT! To give you an idea of what exactly learning about light can do for your photos, in this episode, we’ll cover the 5 big reasons why learning about light will have an huge impact on your photos.
