Light

Linden chose the word ‘light’ as our 2nd focus for Click of the Wild. I am so excited to see what everyone posts! ‘Light’ can have so many different meanings. Light as in the natural light we have, man-made lights, a light salad or something light in the form of weight…. the possibilities are endless!
In case your wondering, we do not tell each other about - or show each other – our images before we post them. When we post the images on the Click of the Wild blog is when we all see what each other captured.

At the beach Stuart woke me up to go watch the sunrise one morning. It was absolutely beautiful and I felt was a great example of ‘light’…

As most photographers, I love me some gorgeous natural light, so I got some of Bristol playing in the afternoon sun…

But the image that I chose to use was this one. This is how I want to interpret my version of ‘Light’:

Inspiration for this shot actually came to me in church. We were reading from the Acts of the Apostles and how Paul was inspired to spread the word of Christ. That got me to thinking; how do I spread His word? And the idea for this shot started to take shape. It’s really not at all how I envisioned it, I was hoping for a shot at sunset where the sun rays were hitting the steeple just right to create beautiful, soft light with lots of sun flare. But, I quickly realized a lot of things would have to be just right for me to get that shot. So I shot from a few different angles at two different times of the day and settled on this shot. I love how the tree’s frame the steeple and cross and how it is in the ‘light’ part of the picture. And those Carolina blue skies…I love that too!

Now, head over to Click of the Wild and see how Alicia, Mallory, Linden and Molly see ‘light’ :)
