Title: Weekly Assgnment: And then There Was Light! Post by: PWS-Staff on December 18, 2011, 01:34:27 PM For this assignment, choose one of the lighting situations described in this chapter Choose one that inspired you or caught your attention as you were reading along, so that you enjoy the process of discovery. Create a portrait of a child or children using light. In this photograph, make a statement about light and your use of it. Make sure that your flash is turned off or that you set your ISO high enough so the flash does not fire so that you can see and use the available light in the setting.
My example, in this photograph of my grandson, a large window to his right provides a soft directional light, giving his face shape, form, and texture. I favor window light if the quality is as nice as it is here. Taken at ISO 400, f/4.0, and 1/60 second. From "Photographing Children," by Ginny Felch |
