So the third lecture started with review of the previous assignment. There were some very nice pictures and all the attendees found the assignment to be more challenging (as we had to photograph concepts instead of well defined tasks) than first weeks' assignment.

The second part of the lecture was all about portraits, we looked at dozens of portrait photographs and had to identify where the light source was, which emotions were displayed and why a certain framing works well with the photo. After that we had a practical exercise where the instructor had a studio light and we could play with the location of the light source. We had to take turns to sit in the portrait chair so the rest could practice.

Next assignment is to take portrait photographs with natural lighting, can be inside or outside. We have to bring out 5 best photos.

It will be a challenging one as this is way out of my comfort zone!
