PHOTOGRAPHY TIPS FOR YOU:
Silhouettes are probably one of the best things you can shoot in monochrome photography because you think about film noir and the sense of mystery. One of the easiest ways to get good silhouettes is to look for a strong light source to place your subject against, and to underexpose your subject and expose for the background. Another tip to make better black and white photos is to use the photo to isolate your subject. One way to do this is to have an underexposed or dark background. The subject in the photograph becomes well-lit whereas the background becomes pitch black. This is a great way to create a dramatic photo that draws your eye right to the subject.
