P6_2_SchantzM_FrontLight
Intention/Technical: My goal was to have the light hit the middle of the ashtray and to create a shadow behind it.
Reference to the reading: "When the sun comes from behind you, it hits your subject straight on, and the light bounces back and brings with it the picture of a tree in a field. The sun is not in the scene, so it’s easier to meter and expose."(Duchemin Lesson 27)
Outcome: Wish I moved more to the front, but didn't want to block the sunlight, but I do really like this photo. I think it's very visually appealing to look at
Edits: I slightly lowered the exposure, raised the contrast, raised the highlights, lowered the shadows, and adjusted the white and black tones. I also slightly raised the temp to create more yellowish tints in the photo. Lastly, I raised the clarity and dehaze, and I also erased some of the bigger rock pieces that were around it.
