THROUGH THE LENS
Capturing Natural Light
Nevada Wier, award-winning National Geographic contributing photographer and world traveler,
shares her insights on creating the best image.
Light is the single most important element in photography. The trick is to use it in a startling
way. I like photographing at the edge of light, when sunrise and sunset can produce such
extreme colors. Both of these images were made in equatorial parts of the world where
those transition times and hues are fast and fleeting.
I photographed the U Bein Bridge, in
Myanmar, just after sunset. The moving
bicycles, tree limbs, bold yellow, and
silhouette show how light, color, action,
and pattern can combine in one instant to make an
image unique. The fishing nets in Cochin, India, were
also photographed at sunset. In this case, that little
blue sail against the orange sky became the special
punctuation that I needed to set the image apart.
You can’t plan pictures like these, but you can train
your eye to be ready for them. The right design, framing,
and moment all matter—but light binds it all together.
Light also plays a critical role in vision and how you see the world. That’s why Nevada insists on
Transitions

lenses when choosing a pair of glasses to wear throughout the day. Transitions

filter just the right amount of light. So you see everything the way it’s meant to be seen.
Maybe even a little better.
