The preview hints at what device has been added to the picture below! Yes, in this case we had a reflector of the company California Sunbounce in size "Pro" here. But in a different capacity than normal! Certainly, this technique is not new, but certainly not all known. I was inspired to this technique (link leads to video) to a video of Krolop & Gerst
Now our current tip:
Vorneweg, a reflector is used actually led to the discarding of light! We have used him Situational andersweilig. The sky was clear and the sun shone for the afternoon. effect unwanted harsh shadows ...
But we wanted a soft light to use to illuminate the person. Usually, one takes on such days to diffusers, the taking away of a regular light as f-stops (1 / 3, 3 / 3, 2 / 3) allows. Only we had such is not at hand. So we have with our easy broadside reflector sunlight and shielded him simply as "shading" is used.
Our logic behind this was that by removing the bright sun, a reflective soft "low-light-source" remains, namely the immediate area!
yet simple can not create interesting portraits with a very special look. Not even with a flash!
Only you need to imitate any California Sunbouncer Pro, but we had lying around to just set up. This technique also works with any sufficiently large object, the shadow returns. Only the floor should the person still enough light, otherwise lack the soft Restlichquelle.
