A pic with light out

Can you take the pic with the light on and avoid getting the light directly in the frame? So pointing slightly down at the canopy? Not sure if that would get a better result.

I don't find the LED lights to be terrible for pictures unless they are blurple.

Too bright and too dark. Can you mix it?
Dark with flash or more ISO? I mean, try to open the lense and do not use automatic configs. IDK, I'm also having issues picturing.
Edit: or turn on the lights and shut down a little your lense diaphragm...

I don't really see problem with the pics either but if you were taking them to ask for specific help, I wouldn't be able to tell much from looking at those pics.

I'd say it's an issue with having a large area to photo, and once the lights are in, or close to the picture, it pulls the contrast out due to trying to compensate for the lightings sheer brightness. Might be a good idea to capture sections from above.when there is a sheer amount of plants to fit in one picture.

Photos come out great for me with the quantum boards on (3000k/5000k/660nm) as I have a small area, and can take a photo with the lights on without copping any of the glare from them in frame which messes with contrast. As soon as I take a step back and the glare effects the contrast, the image looks washed out.

TLDR. It's hard get a good image contrast when there's bright light sources like bright LEDs in frame. Like taking a photo with a window behind in a darker room.

I got these with my Android phone just ignoring the auto mode. Manipulating ISO and other configs available on my phone.
Yeah, it's the sunlight but think it works with HPS too, even without lights just increasing ISO and opening the lenses of your handcam!!Screenshot_20210603-145131.png
