What are three ways a person can manipulate light?

1. Angle - The camera angle marks the specific location at which the movie camera or video camera is placed to take a shot.

2. Filter - Camera lens filters still have many uses in digital photography, and should be an important part of any photographer's camera bag.

3. Time the photograph is taken - The golden hour, sometimes called the "magic hour", is roughly the first hour of light after sunrise, and the last hour of light before sunset, although the exact duration varies between seasons. During these times the sun is low in the sky, producing a soft, diffused light which is much more flattering than the harsh midday sun that so many of us are used to shooting in.
