Black and White Photography


1.Shoot in RAW: Shooting in JPEG doesn’t stop you shooting in black and white – but if it’s an option, give RAW a go, you might be surprised by what it offers you in post production.

2.Shoot in color: If your camera doesn’t allow you to shoot in RAW (or you
choose not to) – shoot in color and do your conversion to black and white later on your computer.

3.Low ISO: Shoot with the lowest possible ISO possible. While this is something that most of us do in color photography it is particularly important when it comes to black and white where noise created by ISO can become even more obvious.

4.When to shoot: When you find yourself with a dark and gloomy day – shoot some black and white shots! It’s the best time to shoot b/w photographs.

5.Right Composition: Train yourself to look at shapes, tones and textures in your frame as points of interest. Pay particularly attention to shadows and highlights which will become a feature of your shot.
