Sometimes what can be intimidating is that light gets associated with lighting equipment - again, tools in the pursuit of creating light that manifests the image in the photographer’s mind’s eye. What is important to remember is that even when using flash or strobes - if one can review the image right away - the effects of one’s lighting can always be observed. It is the observing, the noticing that is so important. Not only is it what we, photographers do as our artistic practice - but if we practice mindful noticing of the light - in addition to the form and the content - can we begin to deepen our understanding of how light works and hone our use of it as an essential tool for Photography.
