Other than that, it is advisable to shoot with a tripod when practicing long exposures.<\/p>\n

4. Use High Contrast:<\/strong> Contrast will act like your friend in black and white photography whereas, in coloured photography, contrast is strictly avoided. Contrast helps you to add interest in the scene by having some portion of the photograph near to pure white and the other part of the picture to near black.<\/p>\n

5. Find a wide range of greys:<\/strong> By having the maximum clean whites and clean blacks in your photograph you will be able to add captivity in the image, but at many times, there are other areas which if do not have a wide range of varying hues of gray then most probably it will make your image look dull. For this search for greys or you can attain it by using flash which will throw highlights and shadows over those specific areas of the photo.<\/p>\n
