light that wraps seems to be something i keep coming back to in terms of what i want to put in my pictures. i think my biggest interest in photography has been to put gradients onto otherwise non-gradient objects. so for example take a blank uniform wall, and have it go from light to dark areas. the same idea applies to the face, which is a roundish object, but all mostly the same color. if you light all areas on the face evenly, you get that big open light effect that is popular for headshots and whatnot.
but if you can drop a gradient on that same roundish object, you start to get really interesting things happening.
