Lighting Tip
SOFT
Soft diffuse light — even tones, great for detail
- Natural light portraits — Overcast sky acts as a giant softbox; no harsh shadows.
- Macro flowers — Diffuse light reveals texture and color without specular glare.
- Environmental storytelling — Low contrast preserves shadow detail across wide scenes.
