A brief exploration of black and white photography.

PRESENTATION OUTLINE

Black & White

Photography

What makes for a compelling B&W?

Dramatic Contrast

Textures

Repetition

Lines

Look for scenes with high contrast

...and the interesting interplay of light and shadows

Snowy scenes are great for b&w!

Also works well on architectural photos

It can obscure blown highlights

...and high ISO noise

It eliminates the distraction of color

Without color, we focus on shapes, textures

B&W has a timeless look

It evokes a sense of nostalgia

B&W gives us a unique way of seeing the world

 With practice, you'll learn to 'see' in b&w
