I have two different ways to get black and white shots. The first - I initially think, adjust the eyes, imagine the finished black and white frame. The second - I shoot as usual in color and already during processing I translate the photo in grayscale.
Creating black and white photos, I want to shoot classic plots. Or do all the black and white plots look like that? In any case, black and white photography is a separate world of photography.
These photos were taken in color in RAW format and were already converted to bw during post-processing.
When post-processing, of course, there are much more opportunities to make a picture in black and white exactly the way you want to see it.
I really love my old black and white photographs, because now I don’t have such an enthusiasm to take them. I’m already used to shooting either at night or during the day in reportage style. And for a long time I began to shoot graphics in color.
Many people say that black and white photography is difficult to work with, and I find it harder to make high-quality color photography.
The individual experience and vision of the photographer is already decided here.
