Black and white photographs

Black and white is the new color. Light seems more real and the atmosphere more alive, the looks are deeper and the landscapes even more fascinating. Immortalizing each scene, black and white does not age, already frozen in immortality, and the absence of color gives way to imagination, allowing the soul to interfere in an image, to make it its own, And to confront the dream. So let’s dream, in black and white of course.

Learn the technique of black and white photo remains a fundamental for the apprentice photographer who will thus be able to play with natural or artificial light, give colume, dig a surface or sculpt a body. More than three -quarters of the history of photography was written in black and white. She had her masters like Alfred Stieglitz, she now has her headliners. The black and white photo scenes give off great serenity and are imprints of the magic of the chiaroscuro. Black and white photography gives portraits an unparalleled depth with a dramaturgical power of the image.

Black and white photography is very popular for interior decoration, and offers a very large palette of possibilities to associate with colors, it mainly has a poetic and narrative power to dress the walls of a room.
