Todays assignment was to discover Portrait Lighting.Taking various head shots of each other using photography techniques of broad lighting, fill light and background light. Using these techniques helped create form and visual interest in the photos. The photo that I Picked was actually a photo of me using background light. What makes it good is the composition, shadow and tone in the the face and also capturing a hint of highlights.

    This is a profile view with side light. I can’t tell if there is a background light or if the light on the background on the left is just spill from the main light.
