Front, Side, and Back Lighting
Elements we focused on: lighting (side, back, and front)
For this assignment, we experimented with different styles of lighting. From the top down including the header) the photos pictured here are back, front, technicolor, and side lighting.
For the photo of me to the left, I wanted to try and capture the shade of brown my eyes turn in the sun. To optimize it, I adjusted the contrast and brightness somewhat and then burned the image lightly to accentuate the dark sections. It was interesting to try and make the high levels of white in the raw photo look less intense and overexposed (something I'm not sure I succeeded at, but I gave it a good try!)
