I am generally happiest when I just have to deal with the light I am given but I am having a hip replacement operation and going to be trapped indoors for a while so thought it would be a good time to learn and try and understand lighting. I have tried a couple of times before but grew annoyed and frustrated and stormed off to the garden to take photos of birds instead.
Does anyone have any good pointers as to how to get into it. There seem to be too many expensive tutorials etc. to know where to start!
Other than strobist, find a project you’re interested in. Try and start with an idea and then figure out how to execute it. Often the idea is harder than the light. (And remember: it’s not natural light vs artificial light, it is found light vs controlled light.)
