Experimenting with Low Key Lighting

  I have always been intrigued by this type of photography, but never quite sure on how or where to begin. After a bit of research yesterday, I finally decided that I would dip my lens into this interesting view of the world. Yesterday using the sunset as my only source of light and doing my best to make much of the photo dark and lighting the subject every so much, I am not too disappointed in the outcomes. Here are just a couple photos from the attempts.

 I don't really have any photos of me and my little angel so I was happy to use him with me. It was difficult with nobody behind the camera so he didn't pay a whole lot of attention. These aren't the greatest photos, but I don't plan on stopping there and hopefully I will improve on this technique and use it more.
