Light study.

Same onions. Same setup.
Just different light.

1 — hard light
2 — soft light

Curious which one you prefer.

(And yes… the experiment ended when I accidentally dropped a softbox on the set and the whole onion scene collapsed.)

This photo was made to a brief as part of my photography lessons. I worked with just two lights and did the post-production in Photoshop — all manual work, no AI. My focus was really on the details and especially on getting the lighting right.

I haven’t posted anything for ages 😬 here we go. Two full days of work went into this one shot-one for setting up, testing, and figuring out the perfect lighting, and another for high-end manual editing. No shortcuts, no quick fixes. Because when it comes to marketing, great photography isn't about looking good-it's about making people feel the quality of your brand.

Decisions, decisions! 💜💚 I couldn’t decide whether to go brighter or darker with this shot of my pink/purple handbag against a lush green background. In the end, I chose the lighter version with some extra pop. Though the dark version won the viewer poll and looks better on phones, I found the light one shines on larger screens.

Immerse yourself in the enchanting world of Chance by Chanel, beautifully captured through my lens. 🌸✨ As the soft gradient lighting delicately caresses the bottle, it seems to float effortlessly on the serene water. Bathed in a warm pink hue, the scene feels like a dreamy escape.

📸 Embracing the black and white vibes despite the voting results! 🖤 Apologies to those who voted otherwise – I tend to ask for opinions but follow my own path. 🤷‍♀️ I truly value your input, but sometimes my artistic instincts take the lead. 😅 These self-portraits were a labor of love, as I’ve never considered myself photogenic. It took some effort to capture moments I’m ok to share. 🌟 #SelfPortrait #BlackAndWhiteMagic #BehindTheLens #selfportrait #selfportraitphotography #behindthelens #themonochromaticlens #selfieportrait #selfportraits #black_and_white #magic_shots #thefemalelens #blackandwhitemagic #photooftheday #instapic #photography #model #elegant #style #beautiful #artportrait #studioportrait #peoplephotographer #whiteandblackphoto

Counting down the days till Christmas! 🎄 Today marks one month until the festivities begin. For me, it’s all about family, friends, and the joy of the season without the stress. 🌟 This reel was a labor of love—10 minutes of capturing magic, 3 hours of prep, 2 hours of editing, and 45 minutes of tidy-up.

🌟 Dive into the World of Cinnamon Almonds! 🌰✨

Hello, amazing folks! 📸👋 Today, I'm bringing you a treat for your eyes - my very first stop-motion adventure with these delectable cinnamon almonds from iamnatpt! 😍

But first, let me give you a peek behind the curtain and share the amusing mishaps that unfolded! 😂
1️⃣ Oops #1: The camera was set up on the wrong side of the notebook, and I had to pull off some C-stand acrobatics 49 times! 🤣🥋I kicked the camera stand by accident after 6 frames thinking that it would be OK. It was not - discovered that when finished. 🙈 That’s why the first frames are all over the place.

2️⃣ Oops #2: I forgot to lock the exposure and switch to manual mode on the light. This led to some frames being brighter and some darker. 🌗📸

But don't worry, I didn't let these hiccups get me down. 🙅‍♂️ I was determined to salvage the project in post-production!
🖌️ With a little Photoshop magic (admittedly, I ran out of time and motivation to make it perfect), I managed to rescue this culinary masterpiece.

And here's the exciting part: this is just the start of my stop-motion journey! 💪💫 We all have to begin somewhere, and I assure you, it's only going to get better from here.

Next time, I'll ensure the almonds take center stage without any more camera stand and lighting mishaps! 🌰🎥✨

Stay tuned for more tantalizing adventures, and thank you for being part of this delightful journey! 😋✨ #CinnamonAlmondDelight #BehindTheScenesMagic #StayTunedForMore #IAMNAT #IAMNATFood

I’m not sure about a website, but I can highly recommend s few books.

This one is for anyone who understands basic math, I’d say usually around age of 8 and up. It’s fun to read for adults too. It explains rather “why” than “how” in a short and simple way: https://www.amazon.es/-/pt/Bitcoin-Money-Tale-Bitville-Discovering/dp/0578490676

More technical one for adults explaining the “how”, I’d recommend this one: https://www.amazon.es/-/pt/Mastering-Bitcoin-2e-Andreas-Antonopoulos/dp/1491954388
Even for non coders, it explains the “how” nicely and you can always skip what gets to technical.
