Light

Yesterday was one of those beautiful autumn days, I took the first picture with the morning light streaming in through the blinds in the sitting room.
The second shot I took in the park near the water in the afternoon sun. I do love natural light. I bought a canon speedlite for my course but just can't get enthusiastic about using it, how about you? do you prefer natural light or speedlite?
I am linking up at through a photographer's eye today, this is a great blog I have stumbled across.

  4. Hi. Thanks for the visit. (And no, I'm not into any new photography content...just found myself in a run down part of town -- the light was great, and I saw all these "compositions." It was fun seeing and shooting rusty, decaying forms and shapes.)

    As for your Speedlite question . . . I personally am just not into flash, and shoot everything "available light." It forces me to "find the light" and be a better photographer.

    Take care. Good shooting.

  5. I love natural lighting and almost never use any sort of flash! Shoot entirely manual, so can usually get the settings that i need with out flash. Love your shots today!

  6. One of the reasons I upgraded to a better camera is to be able to use the available light.I love that second shot!

  9. The light is really fantastic, Justine! I love those warm tones! I'm all for natural light. I must admit I've never used a speedlite so far...

  10. I'm still a natural light fan myself. Maybe one day when I actually understand all the aspects of photos, I might venture into using a speedlight. I'll have to check out that blog you mentioned too.

  11. What beautiful light, Justine. I particularly like the second shot. I'm a huge fan of natural light, but I don't really have much choice, as I don't have any photographic lighting equipment!

  12. Lights and objects together and create an abstract painting.

    Nicely captured.

  14. Love the sparkly water! I am not a fan of flash either, but the looming darkness daylight savings has brought has got me thinking...

  15. These are lovely!! I prefer natural light, hands down. I do have a flash but cringe when it's necessary to use it. :)

  17. Love the simplicity of the image of the light thru the shades. Something we see everyday rendered extraordinary. Terrific!
