Overlighting

Also known as: 顶部打光

When the source of lighting comes directly from above, casting shadows below; the opposite of Underlighting.

Because lighting generally comes from above in most pictures, this tag should only be used when the shadows are emphasized, for example by casting shadows downwards on the face and body from above.

Examples

• Frontlighting, Underlighting, Sidelighting, Overlighting
