Black & White Or Blanco Y Negro Photography

High-contrast images lend themselves well to B&W images.

My friend and fellow photographer @GE McKerrihan wrote a thought-provoking article titled @Black & White Or Blanco y Negro, which inspired me to share with you these B&W Photographs or Fotografías en Blanco y Negro.

Not having the distraction of color in B&W photography strongly emphasizes the tones that dominate the image. B&W brings out form, composition, textures, and patterns.

As you can also see in this collection of photos, high-contrast images lend themselves well to B&W photography.

Also, I think learning to print Black & White images teaches how to see the subjects better and to bring out contrast and balance the light and shadows to give your pictures that extra oomph.

Very High-Contrast Male Silhouette

A dramatic image is created with deep black and high whites, giving that silhouette effect and still keeping some textures, like in the 25lb dumbbells where the number still shows.

Don’t shy away from creating high-contrast images in your collection.

Thank you for reading my post. I look forward to your input and seeing some of your Blanco y Negro images.
