Finding the Light

Light is an important element in my photography as well as my life. We don't think that much about light until we don't have it. Lately I have been searching for good light. I had some good light at the river on Monday. The kind that lightly lays on the subject and evenly illuminates all of the right creases and folds. I sometimes even like harsh like that create deep shadows. It all creates a mood for the image that is likely to be remembered. I am not a master at finding the light for my photographs. I don't think I always use it right still I am getting better. Sometimes I see it after the moment is passed. It is like thinking about something you could have said in an earlier conversation. (I have a lot of those moments...especially since I think way more than I talk) Also when It comes to artificial light it can cause a good picture to look horrible or really cool.

If I were you I would be wondering what do you mean it is important in your life? Good question I am glade you asked. Well I do like to be able to see where I am going in life and also spiritually. God calls His followers to be the light of the world. Now this is also something I am working on. Sometimes I need batteries (I always think of myself as a flashlight) but I want to wash people with the soft light of God's love and  grace. To be a living, walking, talking, typing example of what it means to be forgiven and living in the love of God. So I'm not going to beat around the bush, I want to let you know that when light gets dark and you think you are alone God will be there to turn on the light if you just ask Him. If you want to know more email me.
