Dramatic Lighting


Back lighting, is  when the sun is coming from behind the subject.
This type of lighting will help create sharp edges and dramatic lighting effects, but without proper exposure the subject may turn out dark.
Using a flash in situations like this, even if it is bright outside, can help bring life and detail back into the subject.

REMEMBER:
The goods of the earth are gifts from God. We have a responsibility to care
for these goods as stewards and trustees, not as mere consumers and users.
