Dutch Masters

One of my photo challenges this week was to create and image that would be reminiscent of the Dutch Masters Paintings.

This was a lot of fun to learn about - and I decided - the best time to try it would be when we had no power..... It is something that doesn't take Electricity - to set up a photo right?

After I had it set up - I used the light from the Fire on the right side, and the light from a candle on the left side - to create this image.






I'm not sure I am as good as the painter - but it sure was fun to play with the light sources and see what you could highlight.

And I was glad our power wasn't out that long - many of our neighbors were out for 2 days - that is rough!!!
