Revealing Form, Texture And Shape
At the end of my photo class last week we finished a session on lighting people, then tried a quick experiment to see how light can be used to create texture.
My students worked with a medium softbox and a reflector and explored ways to reveal an interesting space around three small rings, and to reveal the detail in the rings. One of the keys was to realise how important directionality is as a property of light. We wanted soft light, but we still wanted to create shape and reveal form.
