Directional Lighting - Week 4

This past week some friends invited us to spend the day at the private Catalina Beach Club on Long Island. It was our first trip to the beach this summer and my son had the greatest time playing in the sand and water with his classmate turned best buddy, Esme. The photograph below is a favorite from the day and since it was taken in full sun, I was able to get a high contrast image with my little boy in total silhouette. Just like the Catalina Beach Club and its Art Deco design , I feel this photograph has a retro style, like it could have been taken on a white hot summer day back in the 1950's.

Please continue along to see the rest of Photo 52's images for this week. Next up is Linda Hooper, my New York friend and extraordinary talent.
