Hi All....
I was asked yesterday by some newbies and some CS members on whay do we need a Flash Bounce Card.....
So i tot it would be great to jusz provide some illustration here....
As you can see with a tilt bounce flash technique, in some cases the ligting may look unnatural as the light gives a top down lighting. Hence creating prominent shadows in these areas:
- below the nose(if the subject have a long nose)
- Below the chin
- Below the eye ball socket(if have deep set eyes)
- Shouder if the model spots a above shoulder length hair.....
- High Cheeks
- In some cases behind the subject
A bounce flash will help to give a soft frontal lighting hence reducing the shadows mentioned above....
The Shadows are still needed to give detail so the presence of frontal light is essential...but now dampened a little by the presence of a ratio of frontal light.
Hope this helps...
Regards,
me
