Two Light Table Top

Two lights, a table, and stuff to go on it! lol. Let me know which version you like best cause I am having a hard time picking out a version to turn in. I have color, sepia/antique, and black and white. Also one has my mom's notions box in it. Let me know what you all think!

White Balance Comparison

The point of this assignment was to illustrate the effect photographing the same subject using different white balance settings under different lighting conditions. We had three different white balance settings to use: Daylight, Tungsten, and Flouresent. There are of course many more settings than that but they are the three most common lighting conditions. You should be able to see the difference of photographing in the right and wrong lighting situtations.

Daylight as main source of light:

Tungsten (common house hold lights) as main source of light:

Flourecsent light as main source of light: Above: White balance set on Daylight

I didn't exect the flourescent light shots to come out correct. They hardly ever do since flourecsent lights are what all my teachers call an "unnatural" light source and is really hard to photograph in well.

We had to shoot one of each and then all three together and make sure that the lighting ratios were perfect using two different light metering techniques. It was insane but I learned a lot.
