Photo lesson #5 - Lighting changes EVERYTHING!

[@phyrr2]

My old photo teacher had assignments where we had to get a magazine, go through the pictures, and say where the light sources were coming from and how many. Granted that's difficult, especially for product photography for watches and jewelry, but it's a great exercise.

[@LukeAyers]

Ah yes true!

[@patrickhellemans4846]

Hi Luke, you are such an intriguing personality. You know how to catch the audience attention, and besides no blabla, but just the simple truth about photography. Well done again, keep on doing this great job!

[@LukeAyers]

That's a great compliment. Thank you Patrick x

[@FabriceTerrade]

I feel en-light-ened. :-)

[@LukeAyers]

Brilliant 😉😉😉👌

I sure could use a basic shopping list. Not expensive but adequate. I do have Australian Cattle Dogs and would like to capture action shots. :-)

[@LukeAyers]

Nice mate. Get a canon 700D or a Nikon D3500. They're a basic camera model you could start with

[@hoofarmorhoofcare]

@@LukeAyers Thanks muchly mate! Will take a look at them.

[@LukeAyers]

Ok cool, man

[@hoofarmorhoofcare]

I found the Nikon D3500 through Coscto. Question is, it has two lenses with it. Do you have a video on lenses or would it be better for me to look at the manufacturer's site? Cheers!

[@LukeAyers]

Does it have the 18-55mm and the 55-200mm or something similar? The 18-55 is for wider shots and the 55-200 is for more far away shots

We need this guy to be on TED TALK.

[@LukeAyers]

I'd certainly love to

Is that the background you bought recently? It looks great. No highlight on it? Come on, now what was creating the blue cast, was it daylight competing with the main light? I think daylight could have done that if the camera was balancing the light for the indoor light, was that tungsten?. These videos are great, nice to have the emphasis on the operator and not the camera.

Luke, your blue light is fantastic. But this video draws about you. Pretty clever from a man, to focus on voice and character. You comments tells the rest. I will follow your work, saying otherwise is disrespectful and you are good. Thank you!

Bro the vid only has 240p

[@LukeAyers]

240p of epicness. Fair enough, whatever. At least you can hear me

[@mxz145]
