All About Light

  In any visual endeavor it is all about the light. How it falls on a scene, the intensity, how it models and shapes an object. Everything that we see is only exposed by the light that is falling on that specific object. In photography that effect is what creates the mood and style of the image that we capture. The changes in the direction, the intensity and the shape of that light completely alters the moods that we see. With these fall leaves, one is rimmed with an intense late afternoon sun and the other is under a porch light in the midst of an approaching thunderstorm. The same tree and the same leaves but the look and feel with differing illumination changes the effect completely.

Vibrant colors of a fall afternoon.
