Hello iQOO Fans,

I hope you all happy and hearty.

In my previous arcticle I shared some of the new perspective of Architecture photography and in today's article I'll share some tips to shoot Silhoutte Photos from your mobile.

Let's begin,

What is Silhoutte Photography?

Silhouette photography shows the dark outlines of subjects in front of contrasting, bright scenes such as sunsets or studio backdrops. Silhouette images are unlike other forms of photography because they showcase dramatic contrast. Often it’s a photographer’s job to correct for differences in lighting or to try to make shadows more uniform. With silhouette photography, though, you aim to make shadows as deep and dark as possible.

How to shoot Silhoutte using mobile phone?

 Silhouette photography is both simple and challenging since you have to take the picture with the subject in front of a background that contrasts with it, giving you an incredible outline of the light source. Beginning with silhouette photography, the sun is always the best source of light for the background.

You can click a silhouette at any time of day, but I prefer the evening or dawn since the colours of the backgrounds make the silhouette look more amazing. You can use a paper silhoutte, a person silhoutte, or any other element in the frame to silhoutte.

   The first silhouettes originated in 1850s France as a cheaper alternative to having a portrait painted. These silhouettes were paintings, sketches and paper cutouts. Silhouettes are still with us, but today they’re more likely to be made with cameras than with heavy paper.

Here are some of the example of Silhoutte Photography.
