Guest Post – Black and White Photography: A Few Things To Know
I am pleased and proud to feature the below tutorial from a friend of mine (and FPR), Jeff Byrnes. I have known Jeff for sometime now since I interviewed him regarding his photography and website (Lenshare.com). Jeff is busy working on a new site currently and so I was extremely grateful when he agreed to write this article explaining black and white photography and post processing….cheers Jeff! ;)

What Makes A Great Photograph
There are loads of articles on the internet entitled ‘What Makes a great photograph’, most of these simply run over the main elements in photography such as light, colour and composition but don’t actually explain how to put these elements together so that you know how to capture a great image PRIOR to actually taking it.
London Skyline And Canary Wharf By Night

I have never been to Canary Wharf before and so it was literally the case of wondering around and stumbling across scenes.

There are however a number of iPhone photography apps that are truly awesome, some of them are free of charge and other cost a small fee but all are a great addition to you phones app library..
