CONSTRUCTED PHOTOGRAPHY – DARKEN THE SKY


We were shown some painterly lightings usage in a few examples. I quite like the quiet atmosphere created by ‘northern light’ in works of Johannes Vermeer. Then Andy showed us how to emulate sunshine or other light source in studio.

Then we were shown how to darken the sky in daylight by flashgun. It seems easy and straightforward but needs a lot of experimentation.

Andy showed us how he used flashguns in constructed photography shooting. It blew my mind that the flashguns could create such a difference in tone and colour even in the most dull surroundings. I got so excited and wish to do the same very soon.
