STUDY YOUR LIGHTING
1/6
Backlighting adds appeal to many informal portraits. Sidelighting is
often useful, too. And both are safe as long as direct sun rays do not
fall on the camera lens.
Often, when no lens shade is avail-
able, a hat may be held so as to
shade the lens -but care must be
taken not to hold it so close that it
cuts off part of the scene.
In taking sunny -day pictures of
persons outdoors, -almost any typo
of lighting can be obtained, simply
by turning the subject in relation to
the sun.
The attractive child picture above
is backlighted, the sun coining from
a high angle behind the subject. By
turning the subject about ninety de.
grees to the right, high -angle side -
lighting could be obtained. A flu,
ther turn, or a tilt or the head, would
produce further lighting changes.
Sidelightiug produces excellent
roundness and modeling. Backlight-
ing is often helpful in taking infor-
mal poi:traits, especially of persons
with blonde hair. With these ligIst-
ings, increased exposure is needed
to improve shadow detail. For side.,
lighting, try exposure of about twice
normal; for backlighting, about four
times normal. When conditions do
not 'permit, increasing exposure, try
using a white reflecting surface,
filleh. 55 a cloth or nestspaper, to
mist more light into. the ehadosts.
Keep the lighting suited to the sub.
jeet, and you'ItAtain.pictitres with
added interest and sparkle. •
,
,Jolus van Guilder •
" N taking pictures,outdoors, have'
the snn at your back, and a
little to one side."
That is a fine rule for the person
• who is new at picture taking and
knows nothing of photography. Its
purpose, in part, is to insure that
direct sunlight does not strike the
camera lens when a picture is taken.
When direct sun rays do strike the
-lens or Iona 'mount; they are likely
to cause reflections within the lens,
and these produce "flare" spots on
the film, and ruin the picture.
Thus, the "sun at your back" rule
Na safe one, bat it does not neces-
sarily lead to better pictures. Often,
lighting froin one Side, or even from
in' front of the camera, is -prefer-
able with cekaiu subjects. And Such
lighting. is safe -from the stand-
point ot 'avoiding "fiare"-provided
you make sure that direct,
light rays do not fall on the lens.
Some cameras have deeply re-
cessed lenses. With thee, the lens
is adequately protected when light.
• comes from one side. With other,
;Cameras, a lens shade is needed for
aide•lighted pictures. A. fairly deep
;slant eihade makee it possible to take
.Pictarest with the sun to one side
and ,well ahead of the carnet*, so
thatithe subject is lightedefron the
