For this week’s Lens-Artists Challenge, Tina has given us the challenge of “Live and Learn.” With over six decades of living behind me, that is a lot of learning to remember. I decided to focus on just one hobby and that is photography, of course! The first thing I find myself doing whenever I go out with my camera is constantly looking for the light. Light, good or bad, changes the results of an image. Better light means better images and also less time and effort spent editing.

After looking for light, the second thing I’ve learned from others is to stop at different places along the trail. Pausing to have a look in every direction has shown me more than a few unexpected images. Often, a path ahead that is full of shadows, is full of light from behind. Looking down has also provided some wonderful shots of fallen leaves. These are some of my results after looking in all directions and searching for light.

What about you? Have you used either one of these ways to see a scene differently?

Have a look at another similar post about light – “Chasing the Light.”
