Today's lecture about light got me thinking. Light gives us the power to see and perceive, it also has the power to change the way we view things. It is important, especially in photography as it has the ability to give clues and fill in missing details about the single shot. Dimmer light is suggestive of seduction, romance or the unknown while bright light suggests excitement, happiness and joy. A park or playground captured during the night will have a completely different effect to one that is captured during the day. In order to convey a story about growing up, bright light/daylight should be used to illustrate happy moments.
Photography has the ability to capture and change our perception of light and time. With a photograph a moment or period of time is captured instead of a duration like our childhood. Essentially my series of photos will try to portray a long duration of time and reflection upon this continuous journey.
