Inspired #46
Harsh light and blue sky days
Hello and welcome to Inspired, a weekly email for my paid subscribers. In this series I want to explore topics which I hope might spark some inspiration for your own photography. I will talk about my thought process for creating images, both in the field and in post processing. The posts will be linked in some way to the monthly challenges, hopefully giving you all lots of food for thought.
It has been lovely to see the sun recently and it finally feels as if winter is in retreat and spring has arrived. However with this week’s sunshine came clear blue skies, a characteristic that many landscape photographers like to complain about.
For this week’s inspired post I headed out to the coast to see what I could make of the harsh light on a blue sky day.
I agree with the sentiment that blue skies are dull and I would much rather shoot on a cloudy or rainy day than on a sunny one. However I think there are images to be had in these conditions and in this post I wanted to explain how I go about finding them.
