2. Direction of Light
 The direction of light is important because of shadows
,specifically those that are visible from camera position.
 Before you shoot take a moment to consider your
alternatives
 Directions of light affects shadows

3. Controlling Light
 Size of the lens or the aperture openly controls the brightness of the light
 The aperture size is indicated by its f-number or f-stop
 The direction of light and its degree of diffusion affect the extent and intensity
of the shadows, the reveal texture, and suggest volume
 Available light is the light that already exist in a scene
 Artificial light is the light you bring to a scene ( Electronic flashes and other
flash units)

4. Diffusion
 Diffusion affects the quality of light
 Diffused light scatters onto the subject from many different
directions
 Direct light creates hard edged light shadows
 Directional-diffused light is partially direct with some diffused
or scattered rays

6. Outdoor and Indoor light
 On an overcast day, at dusk, or in the shade, the light
will be diffused and soft
 Available light indoors can be flat depending on the
source of light
 Light indoors is often relatively dim

7. Lighting with flash
 Flash units provide a convenient means of increasing the light, indoors or out
 The burst of light from an electronic flash is very brief
 Flash must be synchronized with the cameras shutter
 The easiest way to light a scene with flash is with direct flash on camera
 Manually controlled flash units emit a fixed amount of light
