Inspired by nature and positivity, Adrian Limani shares his favourite light bulb photo composites, and gives us a glimpse into his editing technique
Within this collection of images I’ve tried to create a miniature world inside a light bulb. I love the form of a light bulb, and it has so many implications. We often see them as a symbol for having an idea. With this in mind, when I place subjects inside the light bulb, I look for objects that get across positive messages to people.
My first image is about new life that is flourishing [1]. It’s about life, hope, and looking for the good in things by having faith and moving on; knowing that better days are waiting for us. The way I made this shot, as I do with most of my light bulb images, is by firstly shooting with my Nikon D7000 and 50mm f/1.8D lens. The 50mm lens is great, because the shallow depth of field at an aperture of f/1.8 means that the background blurs easily.
