Create a clean educational photography lighting tutorial infographic in a minimalist editorial style. The layout should be a vertical comparison chart with 3 columns and 7 rows.
Top headers:
Left column: Indoors
Middle column: Indoors
Right column: Outdoors
Include a small note near the outdoor header: no reflective surfaces and also a note saying NO CEILING OUTDOORS.
Each row should compare a different flash lighting method. Show the same female model in black-and-white portrait photos with the same pose across the chart, standing near a plain wall, wearing a simple top, medium-length dark hair, realistic expression, classic studio portrait look.
Row 1: DIRECT
Left panel: a simple technical lighting diagram showing direct flash aimed at the subject.
Middle panel: indoor result with hard direct flash and a sharp shadow on the wall.
Right panel: outdoor result with even harder shadow and stronger contrast.
Row 2: BOUNCE
Left panel: lighting diagram showing flash bouncing off the ceiling.
Middle panel: indoor portrait with softer upward bounced light and a gentler wall shadow.
Right panel: text note instead of photo saying "NO CEILING OUTDOORS".
Row 3: LUMIQUEST
Left panel: lighting diagram for LumiQuest style bounced/diffused flash.
Middle panel: indoor portrait with soft but directional light.
Right panel: outdoor portrait with darker, more defined shadow.
Row 4: OMNIBOUNCE
Left panel: lighting diagram showing flash scattered in multiple directions.
Middle panel: indoor portrait with diffused, room-filled light and softer shadow.
Right panel: outdoor portrait with stronger contrast and shadow because there are no reflective surfaces.
Row 5: THROUGH AN UMBRELLA
Left panel: diagram showing flash shooting through a translucent umbrella toward the subject.
Middle panel: indoor portrait with broad, soft light and smooth shadows.
Right panel: outdoor portrait with soft light on subject but still a noticeable shadow behind.
Row 6: OFF AN UMBRELLA
Left panel: diagram showing flash reflected off a white umbrella.
Middle panel: indoor portrait with soft reflected light and balanced contrast.
Right panel: outdoor portrait with more contrast and deeper background shadow.
Row 7: THROUGH A SOFT BOX
Left panel: diagram showing a rectangular softbox aimed at the subject.
Middle panel: indoor portrait with very soft, even professional lighting.
Right panel: outdoor portrait with soft directional lighting and a more visible shadow than indoors.
