Darker Side of Light Photo Gallery by Jim Hakvoort at pbase.com

Darker Side of Light

Capturing light in dark situations.
Often it gives an image an atmosphere that feels unreal.
This atmosphere is around you all the time though.
You only have to look with the eye of your imagination.

Jim - marvelous photos with magic light. I've always been curious as to how you find the light. Perhaps it's a matter of the right place at the right time, but there is also the rare ability to see the right combination - and then translate it to a photo. I'm particularly fond of "Fascinated by Light" and imagine that as your self-portrait in a way. Keep up the great work - I've added your updates as an RSS feed so I don't miss the new images.

you have an elegant control of light. The pictures are moddy and most engaging because of the way you play with the lights. Great work. v

O, I really do like what you have here, Jim. I am now working on some light theme - still don't have a one of them posted, but yours are inspiring. Nice job.

Schitterende serie! Ik weet niet of ik 'Feeling Red' er helemaal bij vind passen, maar complimenten voor de foto's. Hoe vind je zulk licht?

Very creative and nicely done.

Manuel Libres Librodo Jr.		11-Dec-2006 14:47
These are marvelous shots. I wish I can take pictures like this. Not only did you manage to capture the light (phtoshopped or not), but your compositions are neat. Very viewer friendly. But I like the edgy take on evening play...
