I need more experience at dealing with light at different times of day when photographing architecture, both interiors and exteriors.
I had a plan to take a trip to Duluth/Superior this Summer, but my dad is having surgery prior to that trip and I may end up not going. If I'm home, I think I might spend that time doing some local photography. Get up early, shoot some pictures of local theatres and churches and things like that. Spend some time concentrating on getting to know light at different times of day instead of spending all day driving from point-to-point and hoping for the best. It might be a valuable investment, and would keep me in town if I need to help out around the house.
In the picture below, for example, they seem gray to me. I can tweak that a bit in Photoshop, adding warming filters, or saturating the color. But I think if I had light coming in through windows and the missing roof that was less bright and harsh, the color in the building itself would come through a lot better. But I don't know. I need to do more of this kind of photography in a more systematic way and see how to get pictures I like even more.
