i like your composition, but the lighting is really flat and uninteresting. the top half of the frame is black and the bottom is all one value. if you're going for a night-time feel, a hard source, like moonlight coming through the window, perhaps a little blue, would suggest nighttime, if it's a daytime nap, a soft source like the one you have, but coming more from above, would be more flattering. but i'm no lighting genius, you'd be best off looking at pictures or even paying attention to lighting in movies and on television, how they communicate time of day, create a certain mood, etc. |
