I have been taking a lot of on-line photography classes from photographers that inspire me. One of the central themes in the most recent classes has been the use of light. I know, as photographers we should always be looking for the best light. The classes just gave me gentle reminders as well as ways to creatively use it. Last night I went out and shot images with front lighting in mind. I spotted a bunch of different Mallards and park ducks along the water and decided they would be great subjects with the water as a back drop. Front lighting really does enhance the detail of an image. I was really happy with how the images turned out. Below are these of my favorite.
