  1. the lighting is low key. If it was high key then the center of the image wouldn’t pop out as much it would just blend in the background. They chose this to show what it is your supposed to be focusing on.

  2. the lighting is low key i think. he choose this kind of lighting cause the colors are so vibrant. if the lighting high key then the colors wouldn’t look cool i guess.

  3. The lighting of the background is very low to make the subject stand out. If the lighting was high key, then I think the subject wouldn’t be as much as an eye catcher because the subject is so bright.

  4. The lighting is dark but also light. The lighting is low key. He did this kind of picture because he probably wanted it to be cool but kind of scary. It would probably look like it was darker.

  5. By this photographer using lowkey lighting instead of highkey lighting is making the designs on the object stand out, using highkey lighting could make the colors of the object not as bright or outstanding. Therefor the lighting the photographer used really helped compliment the object.

  7. The lighting in these photos is very dark, and only lighting the focus of the picture while the background is black. The lighting is low key, i think he chose this lighting to only focus on the flowers. If their lighting was high key i think it would washout the main focus and it wouldn’t look as good.

  8. the lighting is lowkey .i think they choose that kind of lighting so the colors would pop out more .if the lighting was highkey the colors in the picture wouldnt pop out as much

  9. The lighting in this photo is very contrasted, being very dark in the background. The lighting is low key. The lighting makes the butterflies more bold. It would change the emotions of the photos drastically if it were highkey.

  10. the lighting is low key I think because the bug or flower thing is shinny and bright. then the background is black. if it wasn’t like that, the color would not pop out as much because it adds to the contrast.

  11. the lighting was mainly focused on the wings of the insects and made it pop out more. the lighting was low key. The photographer made the lighting like this to make the image pop out more. And if the lighting was high key then it wouldn’t pop out as much
