What are the basic knowledge or tips in photography lighting?Posted by brian | Posted in General Photography Help | Posted on 02-16-2010Tags: Basic, knowledge, Lighting, Photography, Tips3 I’m not a photographer but I’m always interested in photography, mostly in studio photos. I used to take photos of my doll collection with my samsung cellfone cam, and I managed to make it look like a professional photo by retouching it on Photoshop. Last week, I just purchased my new digital cam, and I just notice that all of my shots looked so raw. I can’t even retouch it on photoshop. Maybe because of the flash which seems so bright. Or maybe the lighting. I even made an improvised umbrella with a light on it but it didn’t work. Can u give tips about this?
