Photography comes from the Greek words photo and graphis which when conjoined means drawing with light. Light is absolutely essential to photography for without it, making a photograph would not be possible. The quality of a photograph is, to a very large extent, influenced by how a scene or subject is lit. Light gives form, depth and texture and sets the mood for an image.

One of the prerequisites of being a good photographer is knowing how to work with and control light. It can be a daunting task to achieve mastery of light through self-learning and experimentation, but here’s great news to those who are keen to learn. Photoflex, one of the leading makers of lights and lighting accessories for photography and video, has an online school on the web. The address is http:www.photoflexlightingschool.com/ and it’s definitely well worth a visit.

This site is devoted to teaching photographic lighting principles and product expertise. You can learn how lighting equipment is set up to produce great results when shooting portraits and products. From the very clear and concise instructions, you can learn the secrets of great lighting techniques for shooting different portraits and products. There are instructions on lighting for podcasts and interviews and how to shoot small products for internet trading and auction.

The best thing is that unlike a regular school with scheduled classes, you can visit this web school when it’s convenient and you’re free to learn at your own pace. If you’re unsure of anything, all you need do is to revisit the site again and best of all, all this is for FREE!
