A Dash of Light - a photo on Flickriver

A Dash of Light

Often, special lighting makes the difference in a photo, taking it from ordinary to extraordinary. It is always needed, but when bright light and shadow combine well, it helps enhance the image. It is similar to adding that special herb or spice to a meal making it more memorable.

In this forest scenario, the light was moving about as the branches above blocked it, then let it through. Timing was important with this shot, so patience was necessary. And, with my camera and lens sitting on the tripod, I was resined to the time needed, while waiting for the shot.
