When I first started this whole photography thing, I literally couldn’t see the light. I think it took me almost a year before I was able to really see how light differs from moment to moment, from place to place. And now I am obsessed with it.
While we were in California, I took advantage of the beautiful light (and Spring flowers) when taking photos. The theme for this week’s Texture Tuesday is light, and I think this photo demonstrates how light (in this case, backlighting) can enhance a photograph.

Beauty and yes you know your light for sure.
Love the transparency and light filtering through the petals. Beautiful!
So pretty – I love how the light shows through the petals. Lovely texture work too!
These are absolutely one of the loveliest flowers to get backlighting with. Yours are beautiful!
You are so right…this is so wonderful! The back lighting on this is just gorgeous!
Absolutely gorgeous!!!
Beautiful image…your back lighting is amazing…..it just adds so much depth and detail to your flower. Lovely texture applied.
i am a total backlight junkie. 🙂 beautifully shot and processed.
Beautiful, Melinda! clearly seeing the light is no longer a challenge for you!
