26 Images of Light and Dark that Speak to the Soul

A Post By: Darlene Hildebrandt In case you hadn’t noticed, this past week we had a theme to a lot of the articles – light! In keeping with that topic here are some images that feature light and dark. You can’t have contrast without both of them, and you can’t have light without dark. It’s sort of a symbiotic relationship.

Street Photographs Captured with a Pinhole Camera Strapped to the Face

Some street photographers like to operate stealthily, while others are bold and confrontational. Very few will look as strange as Nicholas Williams to the people they photograph. The Ann Arbor, Michican-based artist visited New York City last year and shot a series of photos using a strange-looking pinhole camera that he strapped to his face with twine. Williams finds it intimidating to raise his camera to his face every time he wanted to photograph someone, so instead he decided to have his camera attached to his face at all times....

My Photos Helped Sell a Home in 8 Days After It Was on the Market for 8 Months

See this house? It languished on the Orlando, Florida, market for 224 days. It’s no wonder; with a photo like that who would want to come see it? A new realtor took over — one who understands the importance of professional photography for his listings. I was hired to photograph the home on February 28 and delivered the images the next day. On March 10 he told me a buyer had made an offer. To put it another way, after almost 8 months on the market, the home was under contract within 8 days after I took new photos. Now I can’t say...

A Post By: Valerie Jardin One of the advantages of being a street photographer is that you certainly don’t need to get up before dawn to catch the good light. Harsh sunlight, nighttime and rainy days are only a few of the most desired situations on the streets. Getting up too early, before people are out and about, may actually be counter-productive in your search for the decisive moment. The key is to use light, any light, to your advantage Any time of day or night, be aware of the quality and quantity of light, and look for interesting...
