Contre-jour is a photographic technique in which the camera is pointing directly toward a source of light and an equivalent technique of painting.

The edges of the subject would show surprising colour effects. Contre-jour produces backlighting of the subject. This effects usually hides details, causes a stronger contrast between light and dark, creates silhouettes and emphasizes lines and shapes....

The photograph shows only a selected, illuminated part of a given object emerging from the darkness (black background).When taking photos in the low-key technique, usually one light source is used placed sideways or behind the photographed object. This is to emphasize the contours of the object by placing the other areas in the shadow. The most important in this way of shooting...

Low key - photography technique based on choosing the right subjects with a predominance of saturated, dark tones. In this technique, the positive blackness scale is limited to shades of gray and deep black. Hard (or extra hard) and glossy paper are used to develop the photo. This technique is used primarily for photographs of dark objects, e.g. dark-skinned people, animals with black fur, or with intentions to show a gloomy mood. However, it can also be used to depict landscapes and architecture. It is important in this technique to choose lighting and exposure time so that the exposure is insignificant,...

This technique is mainly used for photography of bright objects, e.g. fair skinned people, underwear, white flowers or when intending to emphasize the delicacy of the object, the calmness of the moment of shooting. It is important in this technique to choose the lighting and exposure time so that the background is bright, the object away from it enough that the shadows are invisible to the camera. The lighting should be strong and at the same time most diffused - preferably directed in the opposite direction from the photographed object. The negative should have high optical density and be abundantly...
