Pitstop in Czech Republic

26. November 2019

When I was driving thru Czech Republic, I visited a castle where I by the way took about 500 photographs…
Here is one I took and turned it into Black and White. I love Black and White photography because it gives a dramatic view to the photograph.

To take this photograph I had to hurry a little because there was the next tourist group walking my way into the photograph. But I managed to get the photograph without anybody in there!

BTW: Do you see the little ghost on the railing in the photograph?

When I was there they were planning a pre-Halloween event. They had Dracula hired to come out of his grave!

Lightroom Tip:

For the Black and White photos I often increase the “Clarity” slider within Adobe Lightroom. Usually, I dial the slider back when I think that the photograph looks good – otherwise my photos look a little overcooked!

Also consider to apply clarity partially in the photograph – leave out the blurry part of it!

  • Do you want to learn photography?

    Do it with me and jump over to my store. There are several eBooks and presets I have been working on over the past few years – no kidding, it took me quite some time to make all this happen! And I am still working on it, there is more to come!
