High Contrast

For the last two photos from last Saturday I have chosen two high contrast photos. It is an unusual technique which I think works well for these two photos. It doesn't work well for every photo and not everyone will agree with me that it works at all. The point is that it is up to the bride and groom to decide whether they like the technique. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

I like the way that the high contrast concentrates attention on where you want attention concentrated. If you have the software then try it yourself. Gradually increase the contrast and brightness and see how some areas are less prominent. You may even choose to make these areas disappear. It is entirely up to you. You may even choose to convert to monochrome or sepia.

Happy snapping
