Light

I am fascinated with light in photography. Which is ultimately a good thing, because light is one of the most important things in photography. That moment when I recognize that I've found a gem of a moment and place in time where the sunlight is perfectly shining on whatever I happen to be looking at is...priceless. 
Around ten o'clock in the morning is usually the perfect hour for sunlight in our dining room, while the afternoon is best for light on the porch or in the playroom. 

I love taking pictures of simple things with proper lighting. It can give everything such a magical air to it. It makes me want to step inside the pictures just to bask in the warm sunlight. It makes rooms look cheerful and cozy. Sunlight should be a definition for happiness.
