    Portrait Photography | Black and White | Retro Look

    © 2010 Wazari Wazir | Black and White | Portrait Photography Just like color photography where we can play with the tone, black and white photography is no exception, I mean there are variety of black and white tones, some may prefer it to be solid from pure white to deep solid black white some others just like a “shade of grey” kind of thing.

Unlike some entry level compact camera, you can’t do many customization to your liking, there is a thing you can do and there is a thing that you can’t do or decide on your own and have to let the camera make a decision for you. That’s why those who are serious with photography will try to save enough money to get a DSLR, so they can express themselves better if only they know…
