Tips for Better Black and White Conversion using Lightroom PART2
Mystery to making awesome B&W pictures that the professionals won't let you know . . .
Dark! That is it. Ensure you really have some dark, and some white in your picture. Check the histogram and utilize my little tip on observing the cut bits. Include complexity or increment the blacks, whites, or both to get a full scope of tones. Regardless of what the subject is in the photo, having enough complexity to have unadulterated white, and unadulterated dark is vital to having a shocking B&W picture. Else you're simply left with a bundle of dim mud.
Tip #3 – making specific hued pictures
There are a couple approaches to make specifically shaded pictures, and furthermore to make that blurred look that is extremely prominent. By and by you can utilize the Vibrance and Saturation sliders in the Basic board, notwithstanding they will influence hues in the whole picture the same. You can likewise utilize the Adjustment Brush and paint in a lower immersion onto parts of your picture where you need to become dull the shading. I utilize that technique regularly, even on full shading pictures, to do tone control on things out of sight that are diverting.
Finally you can utilize the sliders in the HSL board. By sliding chose hues to one side you can desaturate just those hues. You can likewise utilize the little Click and Drag apparatus we utilized before to do the B&W Mix to tap on your picture and pick the regions to blur. Here's an illustration utilizing each of these strategies. None is correct or wrong, simply give you an alternate look and some have more control than others. Pick the one that works for you on in singular picture premise.
