hey guys im a photography student an i was wundering if you culd help me i have been given the task of photographing editorial scenes using natural light only but im strugling to find the right tym of day i find midday the light is to harsh and the morning and eveings to dull can anyone tell when is the perfect tym to photograph outside as i have a deadline to meet and im starting to worry all help wuld gratly apreciated :) x
 
Well you don't want to shoot at midday thats for certain, maybe if it is dull you need to add a little fill in flash ...... but not too much. Have you thought about using a reflector, they are cheap as chips to get hold of.
 
im not aloud flash at all i may get a reflector im just worried as i have set up some fantastic editoral style scenes but the lighting is distorying some of the most fantastic images ive ever took and it is starting to fustraite me a fair bit any recomendatios on decent refectors guys ? x
 
im afraid i cannot im using an old film camara untill i scan them in i cnt post any up they are in my collage atm more film is beeing developed to but im planing on changing to digital camara next week as it will be easy to manipulate my images on photoshop but im sick of dodgging my images in the dark room thats y i asked cus if i can avoid the dodgging ill be happy x
 
I'll help with the proof reading for the Dissertation......:exit:
 
thanks that will be usefull later on but images first im starting to panic as it needs to be finished this weekend :(
 
I find around 4.30pm a good (ish) time to take photos at the moment. Its a subtle light, so not too harsh, but not too dull - just brings enough out in everything.

He wasn't offering a favour, he was taking the mick out of the way you type -- and it's not the first time either...
 
oh well thats just patetic isnt it and thank you for the advive for 430 i shall see what it is like about that time some times i find it a bit dull around that time but ill check the weather reports for then. and the gold reflector sounds good to me but there is a lot of colour already showing through in my images but will give it a try !
 
Well, depends what you are shooting.

This morning about 7:30 was loverly. Sun just rising and golden, heavy mist/fog layering the valleys with the sun just rising above...

Seriously, you get great light around sunrise/sunset and at this time of year that shouldn't be too hard for a student to get up for ;):D

Tomorrow is supposed to be pouring with rain, but saturday is supposed to be dry/nice.
 
Sorry, but I'm closing this. This is an English speaking forum and I'll close any more you write in gibberish as well.
