Silhouette Store – Playing With Sun, Sky And Colors

Ever since I started taking photos, flirting with shadows became one my favorite illusions. The combination of an object, sunset/sunrise and a vibrant sky is the best canvas one can get. Fortunately, I had several chances to witness the combination. Sharing here the scenes I captured during those moments, The Silhouette Store!


Let’s start with a lone tree…

      Hello Mr. Saxena!

      Thanks a lot.

      Unfortunately, in new version of CameraZoom app, the developers have removed the Spot Metering setting. No idea why.

      You can try out Camera FV-5. It has this option and a lot more for advanced photography.

      Cheers!

    Bro there is greater effect of colour gradient layer you have added by photo editing in all the pictures and you are exaggerating them to be ‘lightly edited’.

      Hello Rishabh! Thanks a ton!

      Silhouette photography is not difficult. Silhouette photos stand out of album because of their simplicity and the story they convey.

      Here’re some points to keep in mind:

      1. Turn off the flash
      2. Make sure your silhouetted shapes are distinct and uncluttered
      3. Lighting does matter a lot. Sunrise/Sunset timings are the golden periods for silhouettes
      4. I use Metering > Spot-metering in my phone, via app CameraZOOM FX app to get the black shadow effect.
      5. If you get the frame right then editing is everything. You don’t need to be pro-Photoshop user. Applications like Snapseed and Facetune are very effective, with Facetune being my loved one.
