Overcast Light

Sunflower Velvia I

Overcast light can be dull. It can also be magical.

If the light has no direction then things are dull. If there is direct sun contrast tends to be very harsh. In between is a sweet spot where a bit of sun can give definition whilst the high bright clouds provide loads of magical clean "fill".

Learn to recognise it and then find a nice subject quickly!
