Hey everyone, it's a new week, which means I have new pictures to show you.
Last week in my Photography & Convergent Journalism we discussed the use of external lighting and flash. I was really drawn to a particular part of the lesson that talked about ratios in lighting. The example that we used was in wedding and portrait photography; the subject of the shot seemed to be perfectly exposed while the background was much dimmer. A simple contrast would show a 3:1 ratio, while a more dramatic approach would show a 5:1 ratio. Basically, the difference is in the appearance of the shot due to the different stops between lights.
Instead of drowning you with too much information, how about you have a look for yourself at what I came up with that night.
