The idea I got from @Nimi (thank you, Natan Nimi :giggle: )
I was always interested in arts. And as we were talking about some lenses features (like some of Zeiss or Voigtländer) we got to Renaissance canonical painted modes one of which is Chiaroscuro.
Wiki:
In art, chiaroscuro is the use of strong contrasts between light and dark, usually bold contrasts affecting a whole composition.
Similar effects in cinema, and black and white and low-key photography, are also called chiaroscuro.
So, better you would read it here and scroll to photographers : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chiaroscuro
So, I want to present a few images which would fit to technic.

Spare Ribs and Salad
I am not sure if people in Renaissance had spare ribs ... but anyway ... the lion had!

Very interesting technique! Just as I was looking at colour harmony tricks to emphasize a subject. This is a somewhat related and very dramatic example of that.

It doesn't look like they're willing to share, though. :ROFLMAO: Did they seem bothered by the spotlight, or were they too focused on dinner to even care?

Normally they don't care. The rule is that the nocturnal animals can be lit by spotlight because their eyes react immediately on light changes.
But in last years more and more lodges use red light.
And no, they didn't want to share spare ribs ... not even salad ;-)
