FYI -  l already hold the Canadian patent on this unique lighting technique ... so would all Canadian photographers please forward royalties directly to me pls. $100 per shoot will do. That's my bargain Amazon killer price. But wait! I will be starting a special dollar club pricing plan soon -- 10 shoots for $10! Beat that price!

I use lights aimed at the background, behind the object, but that light above and behind the camera, that's new and interesting. They are pretty technical about it all. But it's just lights and distances. Wonder how that can be patented? I thought they invented some special light or something. Maybe I missed something, kind of skimmed through the copy.

I'm not sure if this is not an April Fool. any professional learns this method in his training.

I remember in the 60s when all the covers of french ELLE magazine were done using a similar technique……

Ok... a big room,  lot of lights... for a saturated category... for 0,25-38 cents... too late...

I think these things can not be patented.



A  photograph patent  lights scheme...

It's like a model patented a posture of his body.
