I live in the redwood forests of Northern California, and this was taken in a state park right next to my family's property. What I love about this photo is the way that the illuminated sky acts as negative space shining showing in the gaps between the trees. The light is shining down and illuminating the the leaves of these majestic giants, but there are still heavy shadows where the foliage is too thick for the light to penetrate. This part of the forest is so calm and peaceful and lovely, and it makes me feel so small, yet inspired to do big and powerful things with my life. I am overwhelmed and in awe with the majesty of these glorious trees, and the way sunlight illuminates it and also doesn't illuminate it, is amazing.
Lighting can change perspective so much - imagine this at sunset and that low angle - still majestic but emotionally so different - on the flip side, as an LD, lighting a beautifully done set is such a joy to work on
