Sun Highlights

| | Comments (0)

In workshop 2 we looked at how to use the sun as a back-light. It puts the person's face in shade which gives a soft look (and no squinting into the sun). It then highlights their head in way that feels summery.
But the trick is to use the exposure compensation button on your camera to lighten up their face (on a normal setting it will be too dark).

Here are some highlights from the workshop.
