“Light makes photography. Embrace light. Admire it. Love it. But above all, know light. Know it for all you are worth, and you will know the key to photography.” – George Eastman

Welcome to Project 52, a long-term collaborative photo project that concentrates on light and learning to master it in its many forms.  As you may know, I’ve spent much of this year learning about and becoming increasingly obsessed with photography.  In this process, I’ve been lucky to get to know several other talented photographers whom I admire a great deal.  In continuation of our learning process, over the course of the next year we will participate in a weekly project in which we will support and encourage each other to play with light based on a common overarching theme. We will spend several weeks exploring each theme so we can really dig in deep, have fun, and take creative risks. The first theme we are exploring in depth is shadows. Here is my take on shadows for my Photo 52 debut:

Next up in our blog circle is the lovely and talented Kennedy Tinsley. Please take a moment to check out Kennedy’s creative play on shadows.
