Obsession



I was out on my patio and realized the Mexican Star Flowers were blooming!  I was so excited.  Their delicate nature photographs just beautifully.  Again, this was taken with my camera phone.


Today was a great class.  We got in the studio and discussed how to light your picture.  I am now officially sworn to sculpt my images with light.  I cannot wait to start playing with light.  Previously, I've always kind of tried to pay attention to how light effects images -- it's one of my favorite tools when shooting.  Up to this point it's always been with natural lighting or a very simplistic flash, not with professional lights and equipment.  My teacher even inspired me to try lighting some night shots using a sheet, car headlights and a small pocket mirror.  McGuyver photography -- good stuff!
