hey /p/hotography, I need images with a focus or unique use of lighting for a project in design class. I'm looking specifically for interesting use of monotone color lighting and dramatic, very strong light sources- and on the opposite end of the spectrum, I'm also looking for multiple colors of lighting and broad, washed light effects. This image is a good example of the single color thing. I'd love to see anyone's work, or be directed to good places to find this stuff. Thanks /p/!

How about you do your own fucking homework? Twat.

I am. I only ask because I know that there are many accomplished photographers here, and I would be honored to use their work.
You don't have to worry about it, though- as you are obviously not in their number.

Kertész majored in Business.

Cartier-Bresson studied painting at an art school in Paris and English Literature at Cambridge, though I don't think he ever actually received a formal degree.

Josef Koudelka majored in Aeronautical Engineering.

Ansel Adams, as far as I know, never even attended college.

James Nachtwey majored in Art History and Political Science.

David Alan Harvey majored in normal journalism.

Majoring in photography doesn't make you a good photographer. There's millions of English majors out there, but how many of them wind up writing like George Orwell (no college), Hemingway (no ocllege) or T.E. Lawrence (History, with an emphasis on archaeology)?

You may or may not be a good photographer, a degree has nothing to do with that.

Bullshit. I think you meant to say, "having a degree doesn't make you a good photographer, nor does the lack of one make you a poor photographer."

So...either way, thank you>>90571for the help.

T.E. Lawrence couldn't write worth shit and should never have tried to.

You obviously can't read worth shit.

What is it in Lawrence's work that you find lacking or objectionable?

stop getting trolled. anyone who writes "t.e. lawrence couldn't write worth shit" is probably not a literary magnate, or even someone with a grasp of the finer points of the english language.

wait, did i say magnate? i meant magnet. literary magnet.

OP's image gave me an idea:
Go for a photoshoot in a darkroom.
The single source of lighting (In an interesting color to boot) offers interesting shadows and sharp highlights and shadows on whatever your subject will be, and to be honest, I've never seen a photo shoot involving a dark room.
Seeing other photographers in a photo is rare as it is, and pictures of Cameras are rarely taken for the sake of art. If you pull it off well, it'd be an exceptionally memorable photo set.
The only thing to fear would be the dark lighting, so crank that Aperture wide open and bring a tripod - and if you have a person as a subject in there, make sure he/she/it's not jittery.

As far as the other side goes, just hit your local city at night. Cliche, but it works - Especally if you go after a rain, neon lights and advertisments reflecting off of wet pavement are enough color and light to practically blind you, at times.
