The greatest tool at our command is the very thing that is photography. Light. Light is our paint brush and it is a most willing tool in the hands of the one who studies it with a sufficient care.

Sometimes it all comes together and sometimes it don’t. Maybe the latte art is almost perfect and maybe the latte taste is almost perfect. But maybe the two coming together is what makes it perfect. It is overcast this morning with low clouds and high humidity so a latte is the main focus for this Friday.
In reference to the quote, I do know after a fews years exploring photography, taking a lot of lousy photos, even disgusting photos, that light is so important to my photography. I know that today would be a great day for portraits with all this diffused light. Sure not a morning for a bright shiny sunrise.
Have a celebration of life for a friend tomorrow who died a week ago at way too young of an age. She had a difficult life and I will miss her. May you have a wonderful weekend and find some good light to paint with! 🤗

Light is a lot like weather. There is always some form of it, but it isn’t always what you might wish for. The latte appears to be a consistent winner, however!
The passing of friends and neighbors is an all too frequent occurrence these days. Goes with the territory, I suppose. Doesn’t make it any easier. Hoping you have a good weekend.

Thanks, Tom. This morning’s weather was unusual with heavy haze making for a mysterious feel.
