i Lamp
Just fun with an LED bulb.
Assignment
While we like to focus on the lighting used in photos, we want to include a lamp this week! That means including a lamp IN your photo, not just the suggestion through lighting. This simple little device has so many forms - something classical like a hurricane lamp, or a modern desk lamp with an attached magnifier for detail work. Perhaps you could share a story of your own little reading nook where you enjoy some solitude or showcase a scene where the lamp is the hero of the image. Maybe you could do your own take on some classic art with chiaroscuro lighting. You could even try to use wabi-sabi concepts to bring out the beauty of a much used object, go for a low-key style with lots of shadow in the shot, or take an HDR shot with multiple exposures to illuminate your composition thoroughly. Don't just take a snapshot, take a photograph that tells a story. We're looking forward to seeing images of lamps and how they're used from all over the world.
