3. Lighting:
Natural Lighting
Natural lighting is light
emitted by the sun and is
generally considered to be
the best type of light to
manipulate in photography.

4. Lighting:
Direct and Diffused Light
Photographers are always assessing the harshness and
softness of light, considering direct to diffused light
sources.
Diffused light gives
soft shadows.
Direct light causes
harsh shadows

5. Lighting:
Ambient Light
When a light source is reflected against a
surface, ambient light is created.
Photographers often use a reflector to
create ambient light when outdoors to
reflect sun light.
Try manipulating reflected light using
mirrors
Consider surfaces that reflect light such as
puddles, windows and bright walls.

6. Lighting:
Backlighting
When a light source is behind the
subject, it is called backlight and can be
used to create silhouettes.
