Photography Styling Challenge #10 – Light

April 7, 2014 by Anjana @ At The Corner Of Happy And Harried 22 Comments

Photography Styling Challenge #10 - Light

After managing to scrape through somehow the last couple of months, I am so ready for this month’s Photography Styling Challenge. But I will also be keeping it simple.

This month’s theme is Light – that which dispels darkness and sustains us.

For this month’s entry, I will leave you with this thought – “Only through darkness can we truly appreciate the light.”

Photography Styling Challenge #10 - Light - Candle In The Dark

I love the next photo for the starburst-like pattern the glass jar casts.

Photography Styling Challenge #10 - Light - Candle In Glass Jar

Another favorite.

Photography Styling Challenge #10 - Light - Candle Glow

I took these photos for my one year blogversary post. Right then, I knew I would be using them for this challenge.

Let me know your thoughts. I love your feedback and insightful comments.

    The 2nd shot is my favorite, too! It’s really well lit and you can’t beat how well you captured the reflection on the table.

    Good shoot, A! I like the first shot the best because it really seems to be symbolizing the thought you have mentioned in your post.

      Thank you, V! I agree the first shot is the perfect light-in-the-dark photo.

    Well – just like all of the others – I gotta say – I love the second picture too.
    The candle in the jar and the beautiful pattern it created on the base.
    You got the eye!

    I think the birthday candle in the jar is just too cute. I love it. I really enjoy the throwing of light by the candle and the way it captures the jar’s patterns in shadow. I didn’t think to try to shoot in the dark, very adventurous.

      Thank you, Nicole. You are a darling!
      Shooting in the dark was not a conscious decision. I took these shots for my blog anniversary post, and suddenly it struck me that these would be perfect for the Light theme. Candlelight always fascinates me 🙂

    Anjana! These photographs are gorgeous! It is always challenging to shoot without natural day light (and that’s why I shy away from it!) so well done for taking on the challenge! I love the second shot, that candle is beautifully illuminated x great work! x
