The most important element in a photo is emotion; that it makes me feel something. A technically perfect picture doesn`t mean much to me if I don`t feel anything when looking at it. “A good photograph is one that communicates a fact, touches the heart, and leaves the viewer a changed person for having seen it”, said photographer Irving Penn.
Picturing emotion is not so much related to technique or camera equipment. It’s much more complex and has something to do with our own personality. And it isn’t received by all viewers in the same way.
Light is one major factor for emotion. Good light always creates an atmosphere. I often try to look out for light and photograph just that – regardless of what else is in the frame, and I`m often surprised about the magic happening just by the light. °•☆•
