B&W TIPS FROM THE JUDGES
Matt Palmer
When processing a monochromatic image, be sure to consider the dynamic range available. Everything from
a bright white to rich blacks can be used to direct the viewer to certain details within your image. So often images can benefit from a little more contrast, or
a touch more highlights on the side of a face to draw the eye to an important subject.
Lesley Downie
Use light well, both in capture and also in post-production. Light directs the viewer’s eye around the image
so it is critical to control this, and especially in post-production where working the tonal range through colour filters can separate out subtle regions in the image. Having good strong blacks and whites in an image is to be aimed for unless a very subtle moody feel is desired.
