Selective Focus: Burlesque
This movie still is from Burlesque (2010). A soft, golden light shines on Christina Aguilera. The oversized feather fans behind her, coupled with this overhead glow, give her an angelic appearance. The light also makes the feathers look like a puffy cloud, as if X-tina were floating. The angle from which the light shines, slightly behind the figures, is reminiscent of a soft halo (aided by Christina's wavy blonde bob). The lighting in this composition captivates the viewer, making them feel as if they are witnessing a heavenly creature; and they are.
