As we reach mid-July, the intensity of the sunlight and the hues of dusk increasingly evoke the essence of summer.
The brilliant white light of midday, rays filtering through the trees, morning light streaming in by the window, and the orange glow that colors the city at sunset—though all are “light,” their expression in photography shifts dramatically depending on the time of day, location, and proximity to the subject.
This time, we are launching a hashtag campaign with !
Share your creations with #summer
Summer light is more than just brightness.
Deep shadows cast by the strong sun, sparkling reflections on the sea or river, soft light entering interiors, and fleeting colors visible only at dusk—even the most ordinary scenes can become unique to the season, depending on how the light falls.
Whether you’re out with your camera, on your daily commute, by your window, discovering shadows on a walk, or gazing at the sky while traveling, try capturing “summer light” in your own surroundings.
