This is not art it is a technique. It is used to explore a subject and not a subject on its own.

Frank Hurley - a picture of a ship - he was about 22 years old when he took the image where the ship was stuck in pack ice. He used big glass plates with magnesium flash because there was no sunlight in that area for months. It is taken in Antarctic. 

Winston link - he came up with lots of natural and clever ways to photograph railways. He used a lot a small portable flashes to take his images.

Weegee - 1960 New York - an image of a girl and her drowned fiancé and she's crying and is in tears but when Weegee points his camera towards the girl she smiles. He has used a camera which can be seen through the background people that are slightly lid compared to the front which is quite harshly lid.

Richard Billingham - he used quite harsh flash lighting towards his family that he has photographed. 

Nan Goldin self portrait - the image that she has taken after being beaten up by someone.

Rinike dijkstra - she has made a series of images of people on a beach. She has lid the picture which makes the image quite odd in terms of lighting. The background is underexposed compared to the person/object photographed. 

Gerard Rancinan - picture of a rugby player - the background looks darker than the subject because of the fact that he has lid his subject from above. This picture would've been impossible if he hasn't used a speed light. 

Picture of the wheelchair - very thoughtful picture by him

Murdo Macleod - the picture in the tunnel. He has used a speed light at the back of the tunnel to light the subject up which can also be seen from her leg that shows the light.

The caste image with the girl holding something above her head - he has underexposed the background by about 2 or 3 stops which gives a very good atmosphere because usually when you take a picture and the clouds look very dark they come out really light in images. 

Gjon mili - picasso with the torch in his hand. One speed light on the top left side of the frame. The flash had lightened up the subject and he has drawn his image with the torch in his hand. 

Douglas Kirkland - shot with a car and people inside it - he has taken of youngsters having fun. The flash has lightened up the car and the people inside it and then has dropped off which is why the background has been blurred and made the king lined lighting effects made with lights on the background. The flash has focused the car and because it was a long shutter speed, the background is blurred. 

Nick Turpin - puddles of light
