NYC4PA CALL FOR ENTRY - LUMINOSITY - THE IMPACT OF LIGHT

Light meters, backlighting, shadows and glare - photography is all about light – its presence as well as its absence. There is an iconic photograph of Grand Central Station with streams of sunlight filling the airspace as it reflects off dust particles in the air. Whether you are shooting in morning or evening light, sunrise or sunset the time of day an image is captured can be as important as the selection of the subject itself. A snapshot at one time of day, becomes an impactful photograph at another.
