10 easy-to-understand lighting methods

Introduction: Light is the basis of photography, and getting good light is half the battle.

The question is, besides shining the light on the ceiling, the side, or the wall, what other good methods are there? Here are 10 very simple and easy-to-understand methods for your reference.

1. Hold two flashes with your hands. Straightforward, quite simple, but very effective.

2. Udi Tirosh What looks like a reflection is actually a projection, coming from the light on the top of the cup.

3. Ragoem: Through the use of high-gloss and reflective panels, as well as auxiliary light sources, every groove in the vase can be highlighted in the picture.

4. Steve Bennett This is a super simple method, but very practical.

5. Fiberstrobe This is a composite light source that needs to be made by yourself.

6. Regina Pagles used three reflectors, and the effect was quite good, with a very full feeling.

7. Benoit Linard Two light sources, upper and lower. The top light is coupled with a diffuser to ensure the exposure of the subject. The light source under the transparent box makes the picture very shiny.

8. Benoit Linard: A somewhat traditional lighting technique for portrait photography. Is the diffuser so close to the left the key point? 9. Steve Bennett: Surround the glass bottle with three light sources to make the reflected light full.

10. Benoit Linard The key point is to use a lot of black cardstock to block excess light and make the subject stand out.
