this is a good photo because it has broad lighting. In the left of my face we can see the triangular lighting perfectly even though I am facing off to the side. Which it can also be the short lighting since the light is pointing at the invisible ear. The only problem I see so far with this photo is the light in the right is not showing as much as it should, it seems too far from me but I do enjoy the dark colors in the left and the brightness in the right . It’s almost like its divided in half.
The photo is lovely. The position of the head is a profile and the light creates a lovely outline. To have either board or short lighting the head needs to be in a 3/4 view where you can see both sides of the face but not evenly.
