When I wake up in the morning there are few things that bring me more joy than seeing morning light and its warmth. And my freshly brewed coffee, of course. But I digress.
I find beautiful to see the room embracing an orange-ish hue all around, and all the objects generating appealing shadows. So I converged my attention to those in order to create an idea of morning coziness and calm.
Photography-wise I still am in the process (that’s one of those topics that will never get closed) of learning how to correctly balance some appearances and tones, but I am pretty much content with the result.
The aim in this photo essay is to focus on the very quick moment a shadow gets born and gets transformed by the cycle of light. It’s a “light minute” able to create amazing tonal contrasts I could stare at forever.
