Lab #11- Food/Fill

I used a white canvas meant for painting as my background. Using this gave me 18×24 area space to play with. The images shot was during morning time using natural window light. I used a little flashlight as a fill and a small canvas white board to reflect the light. I believe I achieved better results using a fill because the additional light source to reflect the organic window light not only casts a shadow, but the fill emphasizes the shadows making it clearer and the fill also adds dimension to the overall photograph. The image that I think is best is the “backlight fill 3/4” photo. The light source in this image is recognizable and I really like the highlight on the garlic. I also like the different values in shadows that is created by the reflective light.

    Good light positions. When you use another light for fill , you need to be careful it is not too strong compared to main light. If the fill light is stronger than main light it will become the main light.
    good framing and angle of views
