Lighting

Lighting -
1. The first picture displays a strong example of top lighting. This is because the direction of light comes from above the subject. This is also an example of low key lighting as there are dramatic shadows that can be seen engulfing the subject. This creates the effect of hollowness and enigma to an audience in question of the scene.
2. This is an example of high key lighting as there is a minimal amount of shadows being casted throughout the photo. This picture also displays an example of top lighting as the light seems to be coming from above the subject in the photo.  This creates the effect of realism appearing more serious and realistic to an audience.

5. This picture conveys high key lighting. This is because the shadows casted appear to be from natural light. It also appears that upper lighting is displayed though the curtains of the photo . This shows an atmosphere of pessimism and also gives visceral pleasure to an audience.
