Shadow and Light
Call for Entry:
Theme:
Photography is the recording of patterns of darkness and light. Shadows
enhance the relationships of subjects in an image, they give definition
and dimension, which compliments the quality of the light values.
Photographers have used dramatic shadows and patterns in black and white
images and have also explored using ethereal and moody shadows and
textures in color photography. We will be looking for a range of how
shadow and light are interpreted by contemporary photographers.
