Wat does the aperture have to do with how "black" the background is? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whenever I turn a color portrait into b/w I often get it to where I like but when I look again I always prefer the color version. Hi! I converted it in Lightroom and made the black blacker, the white whiter and gave it a little clarity. I do think I turned the exposure in the background down a bit too. Thanks, Sea 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm new to this. I was thinking that using f/16 would not allow as much light behind the subject...as if the light would fall off behind the subject and would not be captured as much with such a tiny aperture opening. Maybe I'm wrong. Am I? It seemed to work. When I opened up the aperture, it let much more light in on the subject and also all around it, including the background. So, I closed it down to f/16, and it worked. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assume you had to increase the flash to correct the exposure on the hat/gloves/rope. When using flash, only Aperture and ISO impact the flash. SS only impacts ambient. Another way to get the background to go darker, is to move the light and subject further away from it. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another way to get the background to go darker, is to move the light and subject further away from it. That it is about flash I did not get from the description. To get the background dark on such a short distance from the subject that should be properly exposed, the flash should be CLOSER to the subject, not further. Or like ggweci says, move the whole subject and the flash if that is an option. Using ISO 3200 should not be necessary here! 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
