SCRIPT A good photographer explores a wide range of light sources. Today, for example, we’re shooting at 7 am. The sun rises at 7. But you’ll notice it’s hazy and starting to drizzle. It’s an ideal lighting situation because the light is soft and gentle. The thing to notice about this is to get up early and shoot around sunrise. It can give you fabulous light you wouldn’t find in the middle of the day. (Harris talking to himself) 10 seconds, here we go. (camera shutter) You get a soft gentle light when shooting in the early morning haze.

Take a portrait of yourself.
