Sculpturing shapes
Careful appraisal of lighting either by changing the camera viewpoint ( see p . 78 ) with fixed lights or by moving the lights themselves - is essential for conveying a three - dimensional shape in a two - dimensional photograph . Strong side or cross lighting molds shapes by casting shadows , and for minute sculpturing , grazed lighting ( see p . 50 ) is an extreme case of side lighting . Lighting which renders an object as a silhouette , however , flattens it to such an extent that only the outline shape is apparent .
One of the best ways of appreciating the way in which lighting models shapes is to take a simple object such as an egg and place it on a white card . See how the " feel " of the egg changes as you move a single direct light from above to one side , then in front and from behind . Notice also the differences brought about by lighting the egg indirectly , either by bouncing the light off a white reflector or by shining it through a light tent ( see p . 153 ) .
You can achieve a feeling of depth by mak ing a shadow picture . Simply place a multi layered object on a light box so that it is lit from behind .
Solidified lava
This abstract shape is a minute part of a huge lava field on the island of Santiago in the Galapagos Archipelago . The hard equatorial light was ideal for molding the convoluted surface , formed as a result of the molten lava continuing to flow beneath the surface as it cooled down and formed a skin . Lens Hasselblad 80mm + 0.5 Proxar Mag . on film × 0.2 Mag . on page × 0.4
Creating a pot
I decided to reinforce the window light by directing a floodlight in from behind ( see set - up above ) , so that the potter's hands would be highlighted by the back lighting . Even with this additional light , I had to up - rate Tri - X to 1200 ASA so that I did not have to use the lens at the maximum aperture . Lens Hasselblad 150mm + 1.0 Proxar Mag . on film x0.2 Mag . on page × 1
Suckling ►
For this simple study of a six - week - old baby feeding at her mother's breast , I used the soft window light , with a bedside lamp to fill in the shadows . Lens Hasselblad 80mm + 8mm extension Mag . on film × 0.2 Mag . on page × 0.6
Peeling paint ▷ The low - angled light of a winter's morning accentuated the paint peeling off our garage door . I had to race against time to take the picture before the sun dipped down beneath a high hedge beside the garage . I deliberately off - centered the most interesting part - the circular knot . Lens 80mm Hasselblad + 0.5 Proxar Mag . on film x0.4 Mag . on page × 1
