Lighting can be used in various different ways to create different levels of dramatic features. It can also bring out certain features and make them stand out more. For example in this photo the first thing you look at in this photo is the window, then the hand and then the face and the rest of the man. This is all because they are the lightest thing in this black and white photo. The rule of thirds is also applied to where you are directed to look at in this photo. It causes you to look at the face, glasses and hands.
for help using lighting in photography I used this website http://www.wikihow.com/Use-Light-in-Photography
The photographer is John Hedgecoe and the camera used is a simple film camera that is printed in black and white. A lot of Hedgecoes work is done in film and is also in black in white. His collections are from the 1950's, 60's and 70's, when he was the most well known for his work. His work recently has become a lot more popular. John uses lighting in his photos to his advantage, making the final image a lot more sharper and interesting to view and look at. He has taken a lot of photos of people.
