Why is this not merged yet? Also, you need better images to understand camera framings and angles. Most importantly: the same subject!

You should also consider those for lightning:

Put the Lighting Scenario in front of the rest of the prompt. Just add the desired lighting in front of the prompt. [LIGHTING SCENARIO], other parts of the prompt Example: Blue Hour Photography , Portrait of a 65yo man, short grey hair, background is a city scene, bokeh, highly detailed, Fujifilm XT-4

Some lighting scenarios:

Daylight photography = this means capturing images during the natural daylight hours, using the ambient light provided by the sun. Photographers utilize varying qualities of light depending on the time of day, weather conditions, and geographic location.

Blue hour photography = refers to capturing images during the period of time shortly before sunrise or after sunset when the sky takes on a deep blue hue. This time frame occurs when the sun is just below the horizon, and the indirect sunlight scattered in the atmosphere creates a beautiful blue-toned light. It is also known as Dawn, Dusk or Twilight photography.

Golden hour photography = refers to capturing images during the periods shortly after sunrise and before sunset when the sun is near the horizon, casting a warm and soft golden glow across the landscape. This magical time is characterized by diffused and flattering light that enhances colors, textures, and adds a warm ambiance to the scene.

Low-light photography = this means capturing images in conditions where the available light is limited, such as during dusk, dawn, or in indoor settings with dim lighting. This style of photography often requires specialized techniques, equipment, or adjustments to camera settings to compensate for the reduced light levels.

Natural light photography = this is a style of photography that relies solely on ambient or available light, as opposed to artificial lighting sources. Photographers using natural light leverage the sunlight, whether direct or diffused, as well as the light from the sky during different times of the day, to illuminate their subjects. This approach often results in a softer and more organic look, capturing the natural colors and textures of the scene.

Candle light photography = scenes illuminated only by candles or torches. The effect is very warm colors and multiple shadows overlapping, creating an unique style. Was used by Kubrick in Barry Lyndon. He asked Zeiss to make a special lens to be able to shoot with such low light sources, but the result was indistinguishable from paintings of 17th century.

Neon light photography = involves capturing images illuminated by neon signs or other sources of neon lighting. Neon lights create vibrant and colorful displays, adding a distinctive and electric quality to the photographs. This style of photography is often associated with urban environments, nightlife, and pop culture. Photographers may leverage the contrast and intensity of neon lights to create visually striking compositions. The bright, saturated colors emitted by neon signs can be used to emphasize certain elements in a scene or to convey a specific mood.

Studio photography = is a form of photography where images are captured in a controlled environment known as a photography studio. These studios are equipped with various tools and equipment designed to manipulate and control light, backdrops, and other elements to achieve the desired photographic outcome. The tools can be specified, adding a Lighting Equipment part to the prompt just after the Lighting:

[LIGHTING SCENARIO], [LIGHTING EQUIPMENT], other parts of the prompt.

Example positive prompt: Studio photography. (Beauty ring). photo of a 65yo man, short grey hair, background is studio, highly detailed, Fujifilm XT-4

Example LIGHTING EQUIPMENT strings:

Beauty ring/ Ring flash = A beauty ring, also known as a ring light or ring flash, is a circular-shaped lighting device used in photography to achieve even and flattering illumination, particularly in portrait and beauty shots.

Flash photography = involves the use of artificial light sources, such as electronic flash units or speedlights, to illuminate a scene or subject during photography.

Softbox = A softbox is a versatile lighting accessory in photography, consisting of a fabric box encasing a light source. The interior is lined with reflective material to ensure even light distribution, and the front is covered with a diffusion material, softening the light and reducing harsh shadows.

Speedlight = a speedlight is a compact and portable electronic flash unit used in photography to provide quick additional light in various shooting conditions.

Strip Light = A strip light is a specialized lighting modifier in photography, featuring a long and narrow design that produces a unique, elongated light source. Typically used in portrait and product photography, the strip light creates soft and directional illumination with minimal shadows. Its elongated shape allows for precise control over the spread of light, making it well-suited for accentuating specific features or creating highlights.

Backlight = in photography refers to a lighting setup where the primary source of light is positioned behind the subject, illuminating it from the rear. Adding "moderate backlight" to the prompt would also improve the subject contrast with the background, making the image more tridimensional.

Broad lighting = is a photography lighting technique where the primary light source illuminates the side of the subject facing the camera. In this setup, the side of the face or the main subject that is turned towards the camera receives the majority of the light. This results in a broader, well-lit area on the side facing the camera, creating a more open and illuminated look.

Caustics = in photography refer to the intricate patterns of light and shadow created by the refraction or reflection of light through or off a curved or uneven surface. This phenomenon often results in visually interesting and complex designs, seen commonly in images of rippling water, glass objects, or other transparent materials.

Chiaroscuro lighting = is a technique characterized by strong contrasts between light and dark areas in a photograph. Originating from Renaissance art, this method creates a dramatic interplay of light and shadow. The intentional use of pronounced shadows and bold highlights adds depth, dimension, and a sense of mood to the image.

Cinematic lighting = in photography is a technique that emulates the lighting styles used in movies. It often involves careful control of light and shadows to create a specific mood or atmosphere, enhancing the visual storytelling of an image. Cinematic lighting techniques can include the use of soft, diffused light for a classic and flattering look or the intentional use of hard light to create dramatic effects and enhance textures.

Crepuscular rays = also known as "god rays," are a visual phenomenon observed in photography and nature. These rays of sunlight appear to radiate from the point in the sky where the sun is located and stream through gaps in clouds or other obstructions.

Diffused lighting = in photography involves using a light source that has been softened or scattered to create a gentle and even illumination, minimizing harsh shadows and reducing contrasts. This technique is achieved by passing light through a diffusing material or bouncing it off a surface to create a more uniform and flattering look. Diffused lighting is commonly used in portrait photography to achieve a soft and natural appearance.

Dimly lit = refers to an environment or scene with low levels of illumination, creating subdued or minimal lighting conditions. In a photographic context, capturing images in dimly lit settings poses challenges as the reduced light can affect exposure, color accuracy, and detail visibility.

Dynamic lighting = in photography refers to the use of changing or varied lighting conditions to create visually interesting and compelling images. This technique involves capturing moments when light sources are in flux, such as during sunrise or sunset, or when artificial lights are in motion.

Halo lighting = in photography refers to a technique where a soft and diffused light source encircles the subject, creating a subtle glow or halo effect around the edges. This lighting style adds a touch of ethereal and enchanting ambiance to the image. Photographers achieve halo lighting by using backlights, rim lights, or strategically placed diffused lights to create a gentle illumination around the subject.

Rim lighting = is a photography and cinematography technique where a strong light source is placed behind the subject, creating a bright outline or "rim" of light along the edges of the subject. This effect helps separate the subject from the background, adding depth and emphasizing its contours. Rim lighting is commonly used to create a visually striking and three-dimensional look,

Hard light = in photography refers to illumination that produces well-defined and sharp-edged shadows with a distinct transition between light and dark areas. This type of lighting creates strong contrasts and emphasizes textures and details. Hard light is often achieved using a small and intense light source, such as direct sunlight on a clear day or a focused spotlight.

Harsh shadows = in photography occur when the light source is direct, intense, and comes from a single direction, resulting in distinct, well-defined shadows with sharp edges.

Soft light = in photography refers to illumination that produces gentle and diffused shadows, creating smooth transitions between light and shadowed areas. This type of lighting minimizes harsh contrasts and highlights, resulting in a flattering and natural-looking appearance, particularly in portrait photography.

Soft shadows = in photography occur when the light source is diffused or scattered, creating gentle, gradual transitions between illuminated and shadowed areas. This type of lighting results in shadows with softer edges, minimizing the contrast between light and dark. Soft shadows are often associated with flattering and natural-looking illumination, particularly in portrait and product photography. Achieving soft shadows can be done using modifiers like softboxes, umbrellas, or by utilizing natural light through overcast skies.

Subsurface scattering = is a lighting phenomenon in photography and computer graphics that simulates the way light interacts with translucent materials, such as skin, wax, or marble. In subsurface scattering, light penetrates the surface of a material, scatters within it, and then exits at a different point. This effect contributes to the realistic rendering of materials, especially in situations where light penetrates and diffuses through surfaces, creating a soft and natural appearance.

Translucent lighting = in photography involves illuminating a subject through a semi-transparent or diffusing material, allowing light to pass through and create a soft, even glow. This technique is often used to reduce harsh shadows and highlight details, producing a flattering and gentle illumination. Common examples include shooting through fabrics, diffusers, or even natural elements like fog or mist.

High key lighting = is a photography lighting style characterized by bright, even illumination that minimizes shadows and creates a light and airy atmosphere. This technique often involves overexposing the scene, resulting in a predominantly bright and well-lit image. High key lighting is commonly used in genres such as fashion, beauty, and portrait photography, where the goal is to produce a flattering and upbeat aesthetic.

Indirect lighting = in photography involves illuminating a subject or scene by bouncing light off surfaces rather than directing it straight onto the subject. This method creates a soft and diffused illumination, minimizing harsh shadows and providing even lighting. Photographers achieve indirect lighting by using reflectors, diffusers, or by bouncing light off walls and ceilings.

Iridescent lighting = in photography refers to a phenomenon where surfaces exhibit changing, shimmering colors that shift depending on the angle of view or the angle of illumination.

Spot Light = the popular and flattering illumination technique commonly used in theatre. It involves placing a strong directional light cone, usually circular in shape, that only illuminates the subject and leave the rest of the scene in darkness or dim lit. In the prompt it useful writing the subject toward which the spot is directed. For example: "spot light on the ballerina" or "spotlight on the treasure chest".

Loop lighting = is a popular and flattering photography lighting technique commonly used in portrait photography. It involves placing the key light source at approximately a 45-degree angle to the subject and slightly above eye level. The result is a distinctive loop-shaped shadow that forms on the opposite side of the nose, creating a subtle and pleasing lighting pattern.

Low key lighting = also called Noir lighting, is a photography lighting style distinguished by the predominant use of shadows and contrast to create a moody and dramatic atmosphere. In low key lighting, the scene is intentionally underexposed, emphasizing darker tones and creating a play between light and shadow. This style is often employed in genres such as film noir, portraits, and dramatic storytelling, where the goal is to evoke a sense of mystery, intensity, or emotion.

Luminescent lighting or Luminescence = Luminescence in photography refers to the emission of light by a substance that is not primarily caused by heat. It is a form of self-generated or induced light, often associated with materials that have the ability to emit light after exposure to external stimuli like radiation or an electric field.

Radiant light rays = also called radiant lighting, refer to beams of light that extend outward from a central source, creating a visually striking and dynamic effect. In photography, this phenomenon is often captured when sunlight or artificial light interacts with particles or atmospheric elements, leading to the visible projection of rays. Radiant light rays can add a sense of drama, depth, and atmosphere to an image, particularly during sunrise or sunset

Rembrandt lighting = is a classic and widely used portrait lighting technique named after the famous Dutch painter Rembrandt Harmenszoon van Rijn, who often used this type of lighting in his paintings. This technique creates a distinctive triangular highlight on one side of the subject's face, formed by a small, angled light source. The rest of the face is usually in shadow, resulting in a dramatic and visually striking effect.

Shimmering light = in photography refers to the dynamic and sparkling effect produced when light reflects off or interacts with surfaces, creating a visually captivating play of highlights and reflections. This phenomenon is often seen in scenes involving water, glass, or other reflective materials. Photographers may capture shimmering light by adjusting their composition to emphasize the reflections, using the right angles to enhance the effect. It is also called "Disco Lighting".

Volumetric lighting = is a cinematic and photographic effect where light interacts with particles or atmospheric conditions, creating visible rays or beams. This directional and atmospheric enhancement adds drama, depth, and an ethereal quality to images, especially when light passes through mediums like air or mist. Adding the words "rays of light" or "rays of sunlight" would also help.

For the pics illustrating the lighting, the suggestion is the same: same subject, same frame ratio. Do not change subject, or the reader will not understand the differences.

Another section to do would be about the LENSES. Those are incredibly important. You can find a great reference here: https://www.sharegrid.com/quadplayer . A great lens is this: https://www.sharegrid.com/learn/lens-sets/todd-ao-anamorphic

Jan I apologize for the delay. I currently have a lot on my plate.

Since your content doesn't have any generated images and contains copyrighted material, I am unable to add it as is. (We all know how movie studios react to that.) I thought about writing some code to allow your data to be downloaded and added to the folder, but I haven't figured out how to make that work.

Actually, since the majority of people switched to newer models, I believe this project is essentially done.

Sorry once more for the delayed response.

Sending you my best wishes! Jo

SupaGruen avatar Jun 09 '24 20:06 SupaGruen

Sure, i understand your situation, as well as the situation of this project. Im gonna close this PR now, it wasn't that important either, just a proposal if you might need it. Maybe you figure something out about this project, wishing you the best. Farewell, Jan
