The lighting of a photograph is one of the most important factors that determines the atmosphere and mood of the picture. Natural light can give an image a warm feeling, whereas low-key lighting results in a dramatic looking image. Photographers can also go to the extreme with their lighting setups to create surreal images by illuminating the subject with ultraviolet or neon lights. These colourful photographs featured in today’s showcase are created with the combination of fluorescent paints and blacklight bulbs, or the vibrant glow from intense neon lighting.

  1. I love the U.V jewellery. Gives me an idea for a project involving U.V reactive gemstones like spinel. But I would be intrested in knowing how to capture U.V images.
