Our meeting on 21st May was an opportunity to revisit some techniques we’d spoken about before and look at something that turned out to be new to most members.\u00a0 New in as much as some had heard about them, but not really read or thought much about them.<\/p>\n
The two topics we revisited was to do with Exposure basics – the exposure triangle and inter-relationship between ISO, Aperture and Shutter Speed – and filters, primarily for digital – grey graduated filters, neutral density and polarising filters.\u00a0 These two topics were refreshers for some, but new to other members.<\/p>\n
The topic that was new, in one way or another, was that of Low-Key and High-Key images.\u00a0 When reading around the topic there seems to be slight variations in describing these two techniques.\u00a0 Some will say that just having a black or very dark background is Low-Key while others feel that the whole image needs to be dark.\u00a0 Similarly for High-Key, a white or very light background, to the whole image exhibiting a very light nature across the entirety.<\/p>\n
