Natural Lighting is the Best Lighting

Within these last couple weeks, I've really started to appreciate the beauty of sunlight because it's the best way to see the colors and all it's contrasts in the world versus anything under artificial lighting. It is amazing all the effects we can do with lighting design, but I feel like nothing is more underrated nor can compare to lighting a subject with nothing but the sun. With advances in technology and the (sometimes over)use of filters on social media, I find it undervalues natural sunlight since people over focus on the "right" filter instead of noticing all that sunlight highlights. So the next time we're trying to find the "perfect filter", I challenge us to put our phones away, live in the present, and appreciate the beauty that is natural lighting.
