A re-edit of the images from the low-key photography session I did quite a while back, with the initial post-processed images posted here. Nothing much about this exercise either, just a repeat exercise on the selection of images, cropping, and post-processing, just to see whether my post-processing techniques have improved at all.

Supposedly easy to do, low-key photography is actually very hard to master. Starting off, lowkey photography is a genre of photography consisting of shooting dark-colored scenes, with natural or artificial lighting emphasizing only specific areas in the frame. Results are often visually mysterious, seen as a composition or compositions of light and shapes, interpreted only by the viewer himself.
