SURFACE

Surface softness is conveyed by the way the light reflects off individual hairs.





























Like the cat, individual threads are illuminated in this picture - highlighting the soft nubby texture of the material.





































Close- up of nupastels: The way the light is distributed over the surface of this material shows its unique smooth and vulnerable surface.

FILM & VOLUME

Woman in pond - two volumes intersecting.


















black and white version of woman in pond creates interest by making the water appear to be more surface than volume (consistent vs. perceptual vision.)





















VOLUME

auto white balance set to "shade"







































Cloudy sky on off-white surface enhances grey filmic atmosphere. White balance is set to "cloudy"

ILLUMINATION

Really interesting lighting situation (in a structure enclosed everywhere except a sky light) illuminates only the figures of the girls - who are wearing matching jumpsuits!!!!


































At dusk, indoor lights become distant illuminants and the skyline of the city and couple is illuminated.




The romantic blue filmic/mood quality of this picture is lost in black and white.




















The boathouse is illuminated by an unseen illuminant (an interesting effect of the atmospheric light.) The rest of the scene reflects a steely grey film.









Illumination of ocean road.
