Watch The Light!
Welcome to another mini photography class to help you to get the most out of your photography no matter how experienced you are.
Lighting is very important when it comes to taking photos and could be the one thing that determines the quality of the shot. For instance if you were looking to take a nice photo of your son or daughter to place in a frame above your fireplace and ended up with a picture that's too dark to notice, you wouldn't be happy with your picture. However if you were to take a digital photo in good light without any casting shadows, you would end up with a picture that has a wonderful complexion that stands out.
To get this kind of digital shot, you need to remember that Great Light Makes Great Pictures!
A good way to learn this is to take loads of different types of photo's in all different types of lighting indoors and outdoors and then study the effects the light has in your photography. This is a great way to learn and is also very simple to understand how important the correct lighting is in your shots.
I recommend that if you are taking people pictures the best lighting is the soft light of a cloudy day and to avoid over head sun light that may cast dark shadows across faces. For any scenic photo's you might consider using the long natural shadows and colour of the early and late daylight.
