Lighting throughout the day.
The light in Sabah borneo changes through the day, fast and varies considerably. From morning light, to mid day storms , to wonderful sun sets.
Many photographers and people with compacts , Mobile phones flock to the sea front, to capture the amazing colours of sun set. Personally The sun sets are OK . Its after when the rays pass through the clouds if any, that are a picture painted by light.
Because light here changes that fast, you have to be at the location for 6am . well before sun up. Once the light strengthens . Colours change, Birds sing. And soon People are doing their thing. 7 am the sun is becoming hot . 7 - 8am as the sun shows its first rays across the scene, depending where you are. To hot to be in it. Harsh shadows fall , unless its cloudy of course. Draw backs for me having no car and living in the city. It takes a good 45min to get out of town. My choice was to set up at home. Tightly frame the area behind the apartment , and shoot all day. First hour from 6 am, I have taken photos about every 10 min, when the light changes most. 7am to 8am 2 photos 20 min apart.
then, when the light changes. Till 5 pm when the light drops fast, through to sun set, at 6.20 pm, and just after, to dusk. During the day , the light hardly changes except for shade.
The photos were taken at first on the hour . Then after 10am the light stayed much the same, till about 4pm. Only from sun to over cast did the light change mid day. The morning went from blue light through the day to Golden towards the evening. Not sure what I like most . I think the last as I love the sun sets here in Borneo. Morning sun rise too, if you can get away from the surrounding mountains.
RAIN
There is Plenty of that here. almost 12 to 2 pm we get rain , recently , all the time at any time. The photos for rain I shot on this day.
