Black and white (lighting)

Black and white (lighting)


Light from the top

The photo is captured using light from the top of the object which is pointed down. The photo has very limited shadows which is not stratched due to the position of the light shone to it. The bottle's composition which is a vertical lines shows the strength of the photo and the bottle cap that is placed diagonally brings out the dynamic energy.



Side lights

Side light is used for this photo. This can be seen by the shadows that is slanted diagonally to the side. By using the side lights, the photo conveys depth and also texture. This can be seen by the shadow which brings out the depth of the photo and the texture can be seen from the bottle cap and also the shells. The side light also emphasize the dimension of the object taken and it can be seen from the bottle that has more dimension compared to the photo that is taken using light from the top.
