Lumen Notes

Short notes on photography, light and the occasional walk.

Golden hour is shorter in autumn

The sun drops faster and the warm light lasts maybe twenty minutes. Plan the spot first, then wait for it.

One lens for a month

A single 35mm prime for every shot. Fewer decisions, more walking, better framing.

Fog over the river

Early mornings after a warm day. Underexpose a little and let the shadows stay grey.
