This week we are celebrating the launch of our brand new Portrait Lighting eBook so I thought it might be fun to have a portraiture themed weekly challenge.
Your challenge is to take and share a portrait image that only uses the available light in the setting where you're shooting.
So if you're outside during the day - shoot only using natural light. If you're inside, only use the light in the room (window light, the normal artificial lights in the room etc).
So - you can use artificial light but no your speed light or any studio lights - just what is there in the setting you're shooting in. I hope that makes sense!
Once you've taken your 'Available Light' photos, upload your best ones to your favourite photo sharing site either share a link to them even better - embed them in the comments using the our comments tool to do so.
If you tag your photos on Flickr, Instagram, Twitter or other sites with Tagging tag them as #DPSAVAILABLELIGHT to help others find them. Linking back to this page might also help others know what you're doing so that they can share in the fun.
Also - don't forget to check out some of the great shots posted in last weeks Soft challenge - there were some great shots submitted.
