I Removed Colors From The Pictures To Change Their Mood

ADVERTISEMENT

Photos are great, actually photos are one of my favourite things. Being able to capture a special moment is fantastic and enables me to do what I love here in life, but I don’t always keep the photo true to what it’s subject really looked like.

With the option to remove color from an image, you can provoke a completely different feeling from what you experienced in reality. This can either take away from the photo’s magic, OR make it much more special. I have selected a few photos showing very common things, just stripped of their color to give a different feeling.

    By removing the color of the foreground, your attention immediately goes to the hikers

    So green and blue in reality, but still better as unsaturated when photographed

    The wool may look white, but don’t be fooled by the color reduction, it was a very brown sheep

    Removing the color of the background and increasing the contrast, this swan takes all the attention

    Cornwall, so the sky is blue and the ocean is turquoise

    By keeping to the black and white pattern, the details on this dandelion pops out so much more

    So if you’re somewhat unsure whether or not to strip your photo of it’s color, try it!

    I always check what the image will look like in black and white while going through my shots, sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn’t, but it might just take an image from one level to another.
