After reading the text and viewing the video in the link above, answer the following questions using complete sentences.

What role does the location of these photos play in the final set of images? What role does the lighting play? What does the use of off camera flash do to the subject? What affect does the off camera flash have with the scene it is used in, what about the background?

Today…

Apologies for not being in today. I broke my toe over the weekend and need an extra day to recover. I am extending the deadline for the Off Camera Flash Portrait assignment, and today you get to play with Lighting diagrams. I will be back tomorrow, hobbling around.

Thanks as always for your support and I’ll see you tomorrow.

With Love,
