Does a photo look better in color or in black and white? Is black and white photography only for nostalgics or is it automatically art if I leave out the color? When is it advisable to use color and when black and white?

The golden ratio describes the image division that is perceived as harmonious. I explain here how to calculate this division and when you should and should not use it.

In order to break the rules, you first have to understand them. Our perception of photos and images is not random; it often follows learned and culturally influenced patterns. Creativity begins where we reinterpret these rules – but that presupposes that we have first understood them.

How do the different focal lengths differ from each other? Does a telephoto lens bring objects closer together and why do you see more with a wide-angle lens? With a simple experiment, you can try all this out without a camera.

I mainly use the aperture to control the depth of field. Depending on whether the aperture is open or closed, I get different image effects. You can find out why this is the case and what results I can achieve with it in practice in this article.

In the article “Correct exposure” I explained the dependence of time, aperture and ISO. In most cases, too little light is the problem. When it gets dark, either the ISO value has to be set higher, the aperture opened wider or the shutter speed increased. No matter which wheel you turn, it always has an […]
