Together, we’ll explore techniques that I love to use during the day. From the soft, gentle light of early morning to the dramatic contrasts at midday, and the warm, golden glow of evening light, each moment offers something special. In my course "Creative Light & Shadows", I share tips on how to make the most of these times, and help you push past the limits of your usual routine to experiment with different angles, moods, and compositions. Let's embrace the light—and its shadows—like never before!

All February in our Project 52 we are focusing on black and white photography, with each week having a specific sub-theme. Last week we tackled shadows. Experimenting with shadows is a great way to add depth and creativity with black and white photography, instantly creating visual interest with contrasting light within the frame.

See how the p52 participants used shadows. It's always such an overflowing source of inspiration looking through all their images.

There's still time to jump in the project if you're looking for a creative outlet this year.
