Low Light Photography Ideas

Here we go again, this time I came up with an idea of low light or dark photography at home. Photography in low light situations without a flash can be a challenge if you don't know what you are doing and can result in photos that are too dark, blurry or grainy. Lucky for you there are several things you can do in order to get excellent shots in low light situations without the need for your camera's flash. 

Let's first have a look on some tips that you have to take care while image in low light situation.

1. Use Slower Shutter speed

In order to get a crisp, clear photo in low light using a slower shutter speed and no flash, it is crucial you keep your camera as still as possible. If you plan to use  slower shutter, keep in mind any sort of movement will result in blurry image.

2. Use other light sources

 

Low light Photography doesn't mean no light Photography. Just like in the image the source of light is screen beyond the glass which gives the image a drastical change. And that's how the source of light plays an prominent role in capturing a creative image. However put the light behind your subject to create a silhouette.

3. Adjust the White Balance.

Shooting in low light conditions can result in your photographer, lacking in details and colours. To prevent your images from having a yellow, orange or blue shade to them, adjust the White Balance to coordinate with the type of light you're using.

4. Shoot in B & W

One of the best way to capture great image in low light is through black and white mode. You can capture your photos in black and white, which will do away with poor colour issues all together. 

As you can see in this image the poor colour issues is solved with the help of B & W mode.

5. Post processing.

Using photo editing software can help enhance your low light Photography but don't expect miracles. You can post-process your images to reduce image noise caused from shooting with high ISO, convert to B & W to adjust contrast, brightness, sharpness etc. Just keep in mind if it's a bad photo to begin with you're not going to be able to edit it to be something amazing.
