High Key/Low Key



What works about my low key image is that the umbrella was highlighted in intriguing areas due to the porch light in my backyard.  Low key was difficult at first, but once I found an area with enough but not too much lighting, many of my photos improved.

I had a more challenging time with high key.  I had trouble finding an area where the lighting allowed for me to take an image with a mostly white background.  When I was inside, I did not find a space where I'd find success taking high key photos, so I took photos outside.  In my backyard, I had lighter photos but they still did not achieve the high key I was looking for.  Eventually, I took photos of the skies at Branson.  My photo did not appear how I was hoping, but my ability to take high key photos definitely improved over the course of this assignment.
