Black and White Photography

February 14, 2013 • Leave a Comment

Black & White photography can create a dramatic mood. Until recent years digital photography could not match the contrast offered by film for black & white images. Contrast is extremely important in these images because it really creates the mood. Now upgraded Photoshop and plugins such as NIK offer black and white photo filters that come close or equal the quality from a image created with film. In this scene, which is from a digital image, the contrast of snow and sky offers an opportunity to create a different mood as compared with a "color" image. I like scenes with snow or sometimes old buildings seem to lend themselves to Black & White conversion.
