After i turned off the lights in the kitchen, I noticed the garden angel that I painted had a beam on sunlight on it. The affect was just mesmerizing. I took a whole bunch of photos from different angles. Although the light played well on the colored photos, I decided to play around with the exposure and turned it into a black and white and I was startled at how beautiful the photo turned out. I haven't really done alot of BLACK AND WHATE using natural sunlight, so it was quite out of my comfort zone to do, but I just so love the effect. I will have to try doing that more often.
