Abstract: Lighting, as opposed to illumination, is defined as a combination of directional light, brightness values of the subject, and reflectance values of the surround and background. This article compares “good” and “bad” lighting and discusses the objectives of good lighting, which include separating picture elements, modeling for dimension, creating a center of interest, and directing viewer attention. Major components — cooperation, understanding, and interdependence of the various arts and crafts — are explored, as is the question of the importance of hardware to good lighting.
