SUN SHOULD BE BEHIND SUBJECT break the rules
	First rule of photography is that the sun should be behind the photographer......and that is the first rule you should be breaking to shoot "better" pictures. use reflectors, flash, exposure compensation or any other means to get a great shot.....and please feel free to ask questions. against the light but not silhoettes. well exposed shots. does not have to be people shots -could be anything else also as long as the sun is against the camera!!!!
		Almost overhead sun is creating the highlight on the hair. One should be careful in this kind of a situation that the light should not spill on to the face, as that will create harsh shadows and highlights. In this position, the model is far more comfortable to compared to if she was facing the sun.
		Shot towards the evening quite a while before sunset, the sun is creating a short lighting effect.
		Early morning winter light is comming accross at a low angle. An electronic strobe with a softbox has been used as a fill. The angled light is also reveling the textureof the blanket.
		You have to be careful while taking pictures against the light. In the first photograph the subject is not  absolutely against the light, the sunlight is comming from behind but at an angle. the highlights on the cheek and the nose are distracting. In the next photograph i moved to the left and the subject was also asked to turn towards his right so that the sun was absolutely behind the subject. the highlights are now on the shoulders only and are not distracting. the face is also uniformely exposed. In this case since a long lens (100-400mm) was used the exposure was set as suggested by the camera. If most of the frame is filled by the subject there is generally no need to override / overexpose the exposure. however if there is a lot of negative space and a wide angle lens is being used the need of over riding the camera meter is generally there.
				Another example where ideally there should not have been the distracting shadow of the hair on the cheek. This could have been avoided by changing positions.
