Ian Talbot tells how to be a lighting detective on his blog Concerning Photography. He shows ow to interpret the quality of light and shadow you see in a picture to decipher how the light sources were arranged. So often the direction, strength and diffusion of the light gives the mood of the image, and it is certainly the crowning difference between a “snapshot” and an emotional image worth remembering.

His walkthrough is simple, and easy to understand. Worth reading.
