52 Clicks | Week 19 | Shadow Play

Using shadows in your images is an easy way to add drama, interest and contrast. It's what was up next in our month of playing with light in our Project 52. Whether you use the shadows as a subject in your image or a compositional tool, there are so many possibilities. Leading lines, pockets of light, textures, storytelling cues and various other creative techniques are at your fingertips with shadow play. The p52 participants used them so brilliantly. Go take a look and then decide how you'd like to use them in your work.

If you're wanting to have some fun with light, you should join us! There's still time to hop in the project. Click here to join!
