I want to share this beautiful diamond photography from our friends @sophieandcaitlin. The photo below shows the light and the composition that the photographer had to make to get this beautiful image. We love that the light is so perfect for the setting of this photo.
It might seem obvious, but lighting can really affect a photograph and it’s not always easy to determine which lighting is which. The photo above shows a couple of different lighting techniques. First, I picked this particular scene from a photo I took in January of 2007. I was going through all my photos from that winter and I couldn’t figure out which I wanted to use.
I also used a photo I took in 2009. I tried to take this photo in summer which was supposed to be the best time of year for photographing the beach, but I didnt like the lighting. I wanted to use the beach, but I didnt want to use the sun. The photo with the sun at the top was a bit cloudy, but that helped with the color of the water. The photo with the sun at the bottom was a bit better and the water was a deep green.
The reason I picked the best time of year is that the photo in question was taken in summer, which is always a cool time to take a picture. But the lighting was a bit of a factor. As you can see the photo is a bit dim due to the sun setting. The beach is also pretty overcast, which is helpful to brighten up a photo.
I think that if I had been taking pictures more in the summer it would have had a different look. But as it was, I was happy with the color and the overall look.
I think you can do a good job of mimicking nature when you are careful about lighting and composition. Most of us are not quite that good.
That’s something we talked about a lot on our webinar. There are a lot of people who like to take pictures but most of them are not as good in the end. It’s not really a question of how good someone is or a question of how good they can do it, it’s more about how they approach it. Of course there are people like the most famous photographer of all time who are able to take excellent pictures, but they are in the minority.
The way I see it, most of us are not as good at taking pictures of just a tiny square of whatever we want to. We are in the minority. We have a much harder time when it comes to taking pictures which have a larger area. That’s just the reality.
The reality is that the majority of us are not good photographers. If you want to take beautiful pictures, you should take pictures with a large enough lens to capture a large portion of the subject. But the majority of us are not able to take good pictures because our photography skills are not good enough.
We are not alone. If you want to take good pictures, you should take pictures with a large enough lens to capture a large portion of the subject. We are the minority. We are not good photographers, so we are the only ones trying to take better pictures. It is a little bit like when you’re a child and you want to capture something, the child is the photographer, but the majority of them are not that good. We are the only ones who are.
