Photographing Artifacts Photography of objects used for illustrating books or articles may need a different approach than an advertising shot. The photograph must accurately represent the object. This may involve special lighting and the use of view cameras. |
 |
| Glass objects must be lighted to show their translucence. | Lighting should show detail and shape of an opaque object, | |
 |
 |
 |
| Shiney objects should show detail without excessive reflections. | Some reflections show shape without losing detail. | Combinations of shiney and dull objects present the photographer with more of a challenge. |
