Painting With Light

Painters will tell you that capturing the quality of light – the way it reflects off of wet leaves, the way light glows on the water in early dawn – is one of their biggest challenges. With photography, I find it is the quality of light that makes the picture – more than the composition, the color. Without a special quality of light, the photography is just a weak representation of reality. I’ve come to think of photography in this way, as a kind of painting with light, and my favorite moments in photography are when I look through the lens and see it - a quality of light.

These are stunning. I have photos of just about every one of these sites, but you have captured what I could only see, and never get in a photo. Bravissimo!!! Miss you guys.

Mrs. Fraser!

You are multi-talented! You're a photographer too? That is awesome. Your Pictures are Beautiful. How long have you been photographing? The guy who left the first comment deserves a kudos. I agree with his statement; you do have a vision for seeing the beautifully invisible.

Mrs. Fraser your work is so peacefull and beautiful you should have shown us this in class. I hope this semester is going good btw you were a great teacher, and I hope you know the Henry David Thoreau unit really changed my perspective on things.

Incredible reflections! Ansel would be jealous. good composition. i love the one with the rock that looks like it's got a tiny fish trapped inside.

Beautiful work lady. The light and contrast are stunning. Every photo is screaming to be printed poster-sized and framed.
