Uninteresting photography will not be more interesting if you make it black and white

Black and white is a very interesting aspect but it has a couple of drawbacks too. Let’s tell you about the pros and cons of black and white photography.

The pros

  • Black and white can work perfectly if you want to turn a landscape more dramatic
  • B&W works well when it comes to showing large contrasts too
  • With ladies black and white photo does wonders and this is also true to most portraits as it makes the features stand out way more.

The cons

  • It’s overhyped: way too many people believes in working with black and white these days, thinking that it will simply turn everything look more interesting and artistic. Therefore while it’s good to be adventurous, do not do everything in B&W
  • There are instances when B&W does not have a positive effect on photos, instead it would make a photo sadder and depressing while sometimes it would make a photo straight-out boring.
