As usual, I'm confused...
This research assignment took me on quite a ride. The search for light as subject came back with many results, all seemingly appropriate for this assignment. Some of the examples from my classmates seem to really nail "Light as Subject", but they got me thinking...
isn't Light always the subject?
Sure there are people, places and things within our frames as we shoot images, but what we actually see is the light that reflects, refracts, and highlights those objects, allowing us to see them.
This week I decided to search flickr for an image to use and there were limitless choices. While searching, I thought of how important it can be to properly tag photos when posting to help improve your exposure as a photographer.

The photo I chose for this week was taken by Brijan Powell. It's a brilliant shot of a girl, literally holding light in her hands. Her being back-lit is what really makes this one stand out, as it gives her face perfect shape which would normally be lost if she were only lit from the front. Love this photo!
