I photographed one of my elephant figures so that I could use the same object in all of my pictures. I put it in front of my window with the sun behind it, on my counter with the sun behind me, in the middle of my house with out a lot of light and outside on my car. I prefer natural lighting and found that the pictures outside turned out the best. I used the white balance and changed the amount of flash to see if I could improve my indoor shots. The white balance definatley made a difference but I found that my low light setting on my camera worked the best indoors.

I'm not sure how these two were taken, but I like the final two the best. The first has a nice lighting that actually make sparks all around teh figurine, the second just has a soft lighting all around.
Hi there, I really loved your monochromatic shot, blow it up, print it out! There is some famous painter that does images like that, her name is Dolittle I think, you really have to look for a while to figure out whats in it,..in a GOOD way! Really nice blog, beautiful pictures!
I think your pictures are great! Every one is captured in a different lighting condition. I like the first one with the light coming from behind the figurine, it makes the shadows stand out and also gives it a glow around the top.
For some reason when I click on the last one, it opens the second to last photo...
awwww those pictures are so cute! I really like the way you used the lighting aspect in these photos, the elephant was definitely a cool object to use!
Neat photos. I like the different ways you used the lighting. The first one is my favorite it looks like it is sparkling.

Thank you all so much for your nice comments. :0)
Jay the final two...The second to last was with my camera's preset for low light. The last one was out side with no flash.
Alina...The hardest part of this class for me has been trying to get my photos to go where I want them to on my post...It can be so frustrating! :)
These are all really excellent it is a great study! I like the fourth one down best. Indoors I imagine with some light close by, but not a flash. It does sparkle on the elephant and glow on the ground...
