Interesting Lighting

We landed our kayak on a sand-spit behind Harbour Island, part of Eleuthera, in the Bahama's.

We had an exciting start that day. Getting the kayak off the beach and through the surf we tipped the kayak and my camera bag landed in the ocean. Fortunately it was in a good quality wet bag and water did not get in. A second launch attempt worked and we (and the camera) were fine.

This image demonstrates clearly that images can succeed without strong composition. But we need to give images like this some other tasty ingredients to make them work. In this case it is “Interesting Lighting” which has its own place on my list of Ingredients. This Ingredient can very easily be obtained in close-up photography with the powerful LED lights presently on the market.
