The secrets to great black-and-white photography
Description
If you've never tried black-and-white photography before, I recommend it as a great way to broaden your creativity.
We are used to seeing things in colour, so black and white photography lets us see things differently, perhaps seeing aspects of things around us that we've never appreciated before.
These are the things to be conscious of when shooting in black and white:
- Shapes and textures
- Tonal variation
- Contrast
- Grain/digital noise
- Composition
- Patterns
- Emotional impact
- Nostalgia
- Minimalism
- Shooting in RAW
Practice shooting in black-and-white until you can visualise subjects in black and white before you photograph them.
