Lighting Experimentation

Today we were working with light and how it effects different objects. We were given access to a number of different studio light equipment, from dodo lights to reflectors with a number of different diffusion wraps and materials. Luckily I had also brought in my small mount camera light that I use for filming and portrait photography. It comes with a few different diffusers from tungsten to a stern white.

We were then given an egg and had to come up with the most inventive and different way of using light well and correctly from all this equipment to produce a high quality unique photo. 

Throughout the whole after noon we experimented with different lights and angles to create different shots and my final images are on my fruit photography post. We then handed in one photo to show everyone else. We played a lot with the lights experimenting with styles such having my small light under neath a piece of clothe that the egg was placed on to give it a sort of angelic holy look. The swapping it to putting the egg head on into the ray of the dodo lights catching the silhouette and creating a small sort of halo of the egg surrounded by light. 
















We ended using a black white photo of the egg on a spoon because of it simplicity and the minimalistic style the egg is shown.
