Video Recording #88: Jan 18, 2022 - SHADOWS
Know the rules, but more importantly, know when to break them! Sometimes shooting during the Golden Hours won’t necessarily give you the result you want! use light and SHADOW, to sculpt your image.
Notes to keep in mind:
1. Are your Shadows popping out? Or, are they dwarfed by irrelevant details?
2. Use extreme dodging and burning to highlight your shadows.
3. Shadows are NOT reflections.
4. Do you need colour in your image or does it work better in B&W?
