Exercise 2 - Expressive Lighting-





Chiaroscuro Lighting is the most expressive in my point of view and that is why I chose it. In this painting, the light comes from the background, giving the trees the dark shadow and more definition to stand out in the light. This kind of lighting often makes objects highlighted or the center of the screen (if in movies). So basically the light source is the sunset (which is even a stronger kind of light source for definition), and if this was a photograph, the camera would have been place opposite to the light source. 





In this photograph, I followed the same steps. The light source was the sunset, and the camera was on the opposite side of the light source, giving the person in the picture more definition, yet no facial details.
