Light and shadow of photographic language

Photography is the art of using light. The use of light and shadow is very important. If the light in an environment is dark, and the subject happens to be illuminated by a beam of light and exposed with the brightness of the subject, then covering the messy visual elements with shadows can highlight the subject and purify the environment, and some shadows themselves are indispensable and important elements in the picture.
