This week we will exercise our skills in ‘SEEING’ by practicing our ‘VISUAL SCALES’. We experiment with light to sharpen our skills of observation to see how tone is used to describe form.

Many say there isn’t good light. Just different light. Some photographers, sometimes myself included, find ourselves caught in the trap of becoming a light snob. Meaning we ignore certain lights and favoring others. Unfortunately this is a very limiting belief that constrains our photography. Freeman Paterson is quick to remind us that there is an amazing photograph right now, right where we currently are. We just need to search, explore and look for it. This week we are going to intentionally explore to ends of the lighting spectrum, soft and hard light.
