Learning Lighting
Jan/26/2012 12:31:43

I am pretty new to photography but have gotten pretty comfortable with the functions and use of my DSLR. Now I need to tackle the lighting aspect. I have 3 speed lights with different modifiers to start off with. Anyone with any good advise on the basics of lighting and lighting setups?
Thanks for you time

First I would recommend you read this http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/8 … e_and.html

That will tell you about the basics of light, later you can then look for sites like strobist and others.
