To become photographic superheroes, the most important thing we have to do is to learn how to “ see the light”. The color of light is essential — and some of the biggest challenges you’ll meet in photography are the issues that arise when you start mixing different light sources. Sunlight, for example, has a drastically different color from the light that comes from your fl ash, the light that comes from car headlights, or the light in your house. While it can be incredibly diffi cult to get your photos to look “right”, light sources of different colors offer an opportunity too. With the right mixture of types and colors of light, you can achieve some beautiful creative effects that will make your photos really ‘pop’.
There are other factors that come in to play as well. The distance between light source and your subject affects the fi nal results in ways that can be a little counter-intuitive. The size of a light source is an important factor. A big light source can give beautiful, even illumination, for example. The direction of light - where does it come from, where is it going — and the resulting shadows will also impact your photos.
