How important is the right light?
How important is the right light? do you wait for the light to get right? or do you just shoot your shot, and move on?

Re: How important is the right light?
It really depends on several things like if I am just passing through, have the time, the weather is co-operating or something in the scene will change enough to warrant not waiting. I always take pics in intervals so I can see what changes the changing light have on any particular picture. Good light can be the only thing lacking from an otherwise great shot.Originally posted by Wildernessphoto

I think the right light is critical.
Ever tried to shoot a sunrise or a sunset at Noon?!
Sorry, sometimes I just can't help myself!

The right light
I've found that sometimes light changes make all the difference. I've stayed in one location for days to get the different lighting possibilities, and atmospheric conditions. I can illustrate that by showing you Duck Hole, looking east, at 3 different times of the day.

Lighting can change the mood and effect dramatically!
