Lighting Diagrams

I was talking to Andy the other week and he gave me the link to a website that helps you create lighting diagrams.

To do this, you select the things you want in the diagram and drag them to where you want them. Once there, you can turn them around to get the angle correct. To save the picture, press the Print Screen button on the keyboard and open in it Paint. You can then add text to label the different things in the image. It is a very good website, but there was no icon to resemble the sun or a window for natural light, so I used the icon for a Tungstan light symbol instead. Below are a few diagrams to show the lighting set ups I used for some of my shoots. I have not used any studio lighting in my work, just natural light, so they are rather simple diagrams.
