Seeing with Intent - Assignment 3: Light as Meaning
Week 3 Photo Challenge: Create a photograph where light itself is the subject. Not what it illuminates—but what it says. Use light to imply emotion, tension, calm, revelation, absence, or hope. The scene may be ordinary; the meaning must come from how light behaves within it. Direction, contrast, softness/hardness all contribute to the emotional implications of your light choices
Intent: This challenge asks you to move beyond light as a technical tool and treat it as narrative language.
Ask: If the subject disappeared, would the light still carry meaning?
