Summer light has the transformative power to elevate any subject matter from mundane to magical. Regardless of where you are in the northern hemisphere, its distinctive hues and intensities are undeniably those of the season. This online workshop invites photographers to see, experience, and use light as never before, while discovering its potential to convey thought, emotion, and state of mind.
Through presentations and discussions, we identify examples of the different principles and properties of natural light at various times of day, from dawn to dusk, including temperature, direction, and quality. We also consider the emotional, psychological, and formal implications of these elements.
Class time is primarily devoted to critique, during which we evaluate the role of light in your images and review technical considerations. Short reading assignments amplify the course content and serve as a springboard for (and complement to) weekly photographic assignments. Throughout, Janelle offers practical solutions and general support.
You are encouraged to enjoy yourself as you engage in a process of experimentation. At the workshop’s end, each participant prepares a final presentation of images that celebrate a newly enhanced understanding and use of summer’s uniquely evocative light.
Working knowledge of digital workflow on your laptop computer and manual mode on your digital SLR or mirrorless camera. Participants must be able to download and select images using image editing software for class sessions.
