Len’s Artists Challenge #162: It’s All About the Light
This week the Lens-Artists team invites you to join us in exploring the magic of light…your challenge is to share images that illustrate the power of light ….
**************
In my mind, the magic of light hides in shadows and the secrets they reveal. I love the surprise. I’m always on a treasure hunt…discovering the hidden lines and shapes of nature’s artistry.
It can be anywhere…a photo taken indoors near a sunlit window…crouching down on the floor…whatever it takes…or downtown, walking along a chain link fence…at just the right time of day…waiting for the clouds to part for the sun.
The shoreline at the beach…end of day in November…light and color merge in spectacular fashion…
However…perhaps nothing takes the place of well placed natural light streaming through a window…at the perfect moment…capturing a 5 year old’s uninhibited profile of joy….
It is indeed…all about the light.

Love your captures – that colour merge is really stunning – and the little boy, facing the light – a wonderful moment.

Thank you! I am happy with the way they turned out. I really enjoy the discovery process when the light hits. Seeing the light bathe someone I love is extra special. ❤️ (thanks for the high compliment there too🙂)
