Probably the quickest way to arrive at a decision of Avkat should be done is to follow the typical procedure of the average professional cameraman. His first move would be to glance at the sun — after, of course, a general look at his subject. He notes that the atmosphere is clear and will probably remain so for perhaps the next five minutes which would be time for him to make his shot. Noting the height of the sun, he would probably glance at his watch to check the time of day. We suppose he is a man striving for the best effects, and because of this he is in the field early in the day, realizing that the best results in landscape work are to be obtained before ten-thirty in the morning (or after three p. in.). For that reason suppose it is nine o'clock on a June morning. Because we are dealing with a professional cameraman, he already has his camera, be it of still or movie variety . . . firmly planted . . . and leveled on a tripod and on solid ground. Because it is a June morning he realizes that the light of that particular month is the strongest of the whole season, as far as the Northern Hemisphere is concerned.
The light, becoming strong in May and continuing so up to the latter part of August, is in its most valuable period at the time of year when most amateurs are taking their vacations, thus giving a fortunate break to the "average" movie-maker who is in the game for pleasure.
Subconsciously, our professional photographer has already taken care of the latitude factor in his mind, as he does most of (lie other elements, quickly and without realizing why he does so. (As the sun travels North in early summer, naturally the light increases the nearer the picture-maker travels toward the North pole.) This little joker regarding latitude has fooled many a professional cameraman when taking pictures in Alaska or in the Arctic regions, as the average man in judging the light strength of the Northern countries is very prone to over expose, not realizing the great strength of the summer sun in the North.
