The beauty of light

There are many places on the web that a photographer can find tips and tricks for using artificial lighting to improve their photos, and there's nothing wrong with that. I thought it might be nice to remember how beautiful "found" light can be. "Found" light can be natural (from the sun) and also artificial (from existing ambient light sources), it really doesn't matter. The important point, for me at least, is that you make the most of what lighting is available. I will be posting some examples of found light photographs, with some explanation and illustration of any specific techniques I used to accomplish the result. I hope you find some of this information helpful.
