Sarah: Playing With Light

Sarah does an excellent joy capturing the warmth of her images. She highlights figures with both darkness and with brighter lights. Her first image of tree branches does a wonderful job demonstrating this. The darkness is shown as a shadow on the underneath layer of the leaves, while the tops of them are almost illuminescent.  The converging lines of the branches both big and small draws your eye through the entire picture. In her second photo, she highlights a church resembling Notra dame in the evening.  The way the lights from underneath the doors and windows gives the picture a mystical feel.  The third image is shot out of a window inside mi tierra.  The lights from inside the window look as if they are colorful confetti falling to the ground outside. I like Sarah's fourth image a lot because of the wonderful texture that cane be seen as the sunlight shines through the tarp.  At first you hold your gaze on the bring sun spot, but then your eye moves to a dark spot to the left that is a shadow of a butterfly.  Her final image show both light and dark through shadows in the waves.  It almost seams symbolic having the light waves represent life and the darker waves to represent where the dead fish lays, having just crossed over from the light side.
