the power of light Photography. The literal meaning is "Writing" (graphy) with "light" (photo). When you press the shutter, you are capturing light. The more effectively you control that light, the better your photographs will be. The pages within this guide are designed to provide examples and solutions to assist you in capturing light effectively in both natural and artificial light. We will start with an overview of different types of natural light, lighting concepts and how you can make a dramatic difference to your photographs by adding artificial light in the form of a single flash. We will then explore using single and multiple wireless flash to further customize how light is captured. Portraits, action, landscape, daytime, nighttime, close-ups and much more are here for you to discover, learn and hopefully implement.
