Light

       Light can mean a variety of different things. Whether its the light in the room or outside, or even the light that is reflected of a screen. However, many don't realize that light is the base of photography. When taking a photograph it is essential for one to look at the lighting because light will determine the outcome of the photograph. A light reflected off of a screen can change a lot in a photograph. It changes the way in which a photo is taken and the outcome is different. Along with the light of a screen, the outside light cause a different shading. Whether its darker or brighter, it doesn't matter, the light causes a distinct result compared to the lighting anywhere else. However, the lighting outside is something one should be careful with. The position in which you're standing in the light can create a blowout in the background. A blowout will cover the view of the object or person in a photo. Yet, there are moments in which the light gives an image a more natural look. Many need to take notice that light is extremely important for a photograph, its outcome sometimes may depend on light. Overall, light is something you should experiment with, the different types of lighting can create an image that you wouldn't have expected.
