Lighting around the college...


As a photographer, we are trained to look at light in a different way then other people. And by doing this learn how to use all the light we have to the best of our ability!

The following images where taken in the wednesday
afternoons session with Andy Farrington... we where send out in group of 3 and told to take pictures of each other under different types of lighting around the college. There was so many different types of lighting but we only had 2 hours to do it in.

Here are some examples from the exercise...

1/125, f4.0
InfaRed Lighting (darkroom).

The next image was taken using the natural lighting we had around us. The light source was coming from the big windows, we stood the model opposite the window.

(Daylight)

We then made our way to the lift (the one on the right without the camera has a better light in it, the ceiling acts as abit like a diffuser)

1/125, f2.8
(Fluorescent)

Into the studio and we used some different types of lighting, this image was lit by attaching a soft box onto one of the lights and placing it at a 45o from the model.

1/125, f5.6

This image was lit in the same way as the one above, only a strobe light was added, and we placed the model nearer to the window. I think the end result is better as the lighting in the image has a natural feel to it.


1/125, f8.0
