Teach Yourself Black & White Photography

Teach Yourself Black & White Photography
Magazine

Whether it’s the inspirational wild landscapes of Ansel Adams, beautiful portraits or gritty street scenes, monochrome photography is as popular as ever. In Teach Yourself Black & White Photography, we explore the simplicity and timeless class of monochromatic imaging – and show you exactly how it’s all done. Whether you’re a semi-pro photographer looking for inspiration or a total beginner unsure which DSLR settings to use, our essential 196-page guide will help you learn new skills and shoot better black and white pictures. We reveal how to look at subjects and scenes with the eyes of a black-and-white photographer, ready to capture the contrast in an architectural shot, or draw out a person’s personality in a portrait. We also show you how to plan a fine-art nude photoshoot, and the effect that perfect light can have on a still life. As well as shooting advice, we share our top tips for converting landscapes, urban scenes and other colour photos into mono and enhance them using Photoshop, Elements and Lightroom – from basic methods to more advanced image editing techniques. So whatever you’re drawn to, we have plenty of projects and ideas for you to sink your teeth into.
