ABSTRACT
At night with incandescent light sources, you’ll have more freedom to move both the subject and the light. Again, it’s a good idea to keep the light source out of the frame, but this time you don’t have to compromise framing, just move the light. Another reason to remove the light from the frame is because table and fl oor lamps (practicles) sometimes leave a halo around the subject when placed in the frame. The light falling on the subject should be the brightest spot in the frame, with as few deep shadows as possible. Try to mold the light across from one side of the subject to the other so the difference between lighter and darker helps create the illusion of three dimensions.
