Natural Light Part II (a trend is developing...)

So, what you'll see in this sample photo that's the same as my first post on natural light is that it's relying on a big window as the light source. Even more specifically, it's a big window that is getting indirect sunlight so it's even softer.

Here's a photo of the room, so you can see just how much light was coming through the window.


P3200532

I had my mom stand perpendicular to the window so that it gave a nice side light. Using natural light does tend to result in less detail and sharpness than a flash, but sharper isn't always better, and after all, natural is in its description.
