52 Photos Project

This week's theme:   A Ray of Light



I thought a lot about the theme this week.  Light is the key to any good photo.  Or the control of light, I should say.  If you break photography down to it's roots, photo means light and graphy means to write.  To write with light.  There is so much beauty in that I just can't stand it. 

Here, Stella is sitting at the vanity in her room.  The light situation in  there is pretty bad.  There was only one main source of light (small lamp) and some existing sunlight floating around.  I had to bump up ISO and deal with a lot of grain BUT I really like how it turned out.  I guess she's my little muse most of the time.  She makes writing with light pretty fun!
