The theme may seem simple, but photographers know there is a whole lot more to black and white photography than just these two colors. That said, every rookie photographer is urged to experiment with black and white photography at least once. Here are some tips that could help you with this.

Taking raw shots is probably as good a starting point as any since a lot of people have a hard time imagining a black and white image in their head. A lot of cameras today have functions that allow photographers to see the image in black and white. Still, it’s best to shoot it raw and try altering the shots via filters.
Shooting for contrasts is a great way to add drama to an image. Since black and white images are different from what most people see in the real world, they need more drama to make the photograph as impactful.
Taking long exposure photographs is wonderful with monochrome filters. They’re best used against backgrounds with moving clouds or moving water.
And speaking of which, photographers who are into black and white photography experiment a lot with filters. Through filters, they discover whole new dimensions to the images they shoot.
