Studio photography unit 1 Systems & Processes lighting techniques

Using a pineapple i used a technique called 45%45.

All of the shots for 45%45% lighting were shot on the same settings but at different light modifiers, angles and composition.

45%45

Using 45%45% lighting i used a honeycomb at a 45-45 degree angle.
At that angle it gives a shadow to the right side of the subject. In this case it was a pineapple.

High key

I found photographing in high key lighting wasn't that good because you dont get much detail. Personally photographing an object like this one, i much prefer  low key because it shows more detail and gives off a warmer colour.
