Vignetting - What is it ?
Do your pictures have unusually dark corners ?
Perhaps you are suffering from vignetting ...¨HUH ??¨ What is
that you ask.
The dictionary says vignetting is ¨a photograph whose edges shade
off gradually¨
In photographic terms , we call this ¨light fall-off¨, as there
is less light reaching the edges , and especially the corners of the
frame.
OK , so our photographs shade off gradually , so whats the big deal.
Well , none if thats what we are wanting , in fact , some deliberately
alter picture in the darkroom to cause some sort of vignetting effect.
Take a look at the picture below.
Some would say thats its an OK sort of pik , but look at the dark
corners for a few moments , starting to get annoying aren't they ?
