A most interesting couple and beautiful lighting! > > Once again you've shown your un-canny ability to capture very interesting moments of people as both you and your subject walk along the street. One thing for sure is, shooting this from the "SHADOW SIDE!" Helps lift the subjects off the page. It is an excellent example of how the "SHADOW SIDE LIGHTING" enhances a scene without question. > > Obviously in this case you were lucky to be standing on the shadow side and not having to change position. But if a photographer recognizes this light effect quickly. Quite often he or she can move in time to make use of it in many photo situations. > > If the great painter Rembrandt were still alive he would appreciate your photo even more so, because of the lighting. :-) We should give him credit as this lighting effect in a portrait studio is generally referred to as "Rembrandt Lighting." :-) > > I just change the word title for out of studio situations whatever they maybe, when this effect is obvious. :-) > > Another excellent life moment caught by the ever "Masterful Lluis!" :-) > > cheers, > ted > PS: > It is certainly one for the LUG 2012 Year Book and your next book! > > > > _______________________________________________ > Leica Users Group. > See http://leica-users.org/mailman/listinfo/lug for more information
