Lighting is what photography is all about. The lighting and its correct use can make the difference between a good image and a stunning image. Artists have used light in their paintings throughout the years to bring them to life and create shape, depth and creativity to their work.
This course, which is a follow on from the Art of seeing and creating stunning images, will look at all aspects of lighting and how we as photographers can best use the light to be creative and produce stunning images. We will get you thinking about the lighting just as much as thinking about the subject and inspire you to use the lighting in the best possible way.
