ok, does anyone know how, if you have an object dangling, say, in front of a wall, and the wall is quite dark...you can use a spotlight to get some light modelling onto the object without throwing a pool of light onto the wall behind. The problem is, the ornament looks too flat without any light modelling on it, but eithert the spotlight power is set way low, where you don't get a pool thrown behind, but it's also not really bright enough to give visible form to the ornament, or it is bright enough, and you get an obvious pool behind. I've seen it done..just not sure how. BTW...what exactly IS the diff between a spotlight and a quadratic spotlight?
