Hola amantes del blanco y negro. Hace un tiempo les hable sobre un la fotografía documental tomando de ejemplo mi trabajo con un grupo de actores teatrales. A esos mismos actores les realice unos retratos usando solamente un flash y a pleno día, como tal no era necesario pues no había oscuridad, pero es una técnica que aprendí en mis inicios de la fotografía y estoy seguro que les gustará.
La técnica se basa en capturar un primer plano iluminado mientras todo lo demás alrededor permanece a oscuras, aún cuando es de día. El truco esta en hacer el dispara a una velocidad de obturación entre 1/150 y 1/200, esto hará que se capture la luz del flash pero no la del ambiente.
En estas imágenes les muestro como lo hice aquel día, la tela negra del fondo realmente no es muy necesaria a menos que tengas algún objeto o una pared como es este caso que este muy cercano al sujeto. Obvien cualquier luz que no sea el flash que esta sosteniendo una de las muchachas, fue la única luz utilizada.
Hello lovers of black and white. Some time ago I spoke to you about documentary photography, taking as an example my work with a group of theatrical actors. I made some portraits of those same actors using only a flash and in broad daylight, as such it was not necessary because there was no darkness, but it is a technique that I learned in my early days of photography and I am sure you will like it.
The technique is based on capturing a lit foreground while everything else around it remains dark, even when it is daytime. The trick is to shoot at a shutter speed between 1/150 and 1/200, this will capture the light from the flash but not the ambient light.
In these images I show you how I did it that day, the black fabric in the background is really not very necessary unless you have an object or a wall as in this case that is very close to the subject. Obviously any light other than the flash one of the girls is holding was the only light used.
Este es el resultado, noten como el fondo esta totalmente oscuro, lo que propicia un buen contraste y centra la atención en la persona.
This is the result, notice how the background is totally dark, which provides a good contrast and focuses attention on the person.
Si se fijan en las siguientes solo se ilumina la mitad de la cara de la persona, esto es fácil de hacer al cambiar el ángulo de la luz, puedes jugar con esto para obtener distintos resultados.
If you look at the following only half of the person's face lights up, this is easy to do by changing the angle of the light, you can play with this to get different results.
Y este soy yo, actuando un poco sorprendido al ver que me hacen fotos con un mi propio celular, esa belleza que tengo en mis manos es mi antigua Canon 700D, super recomendada si inicias en la fotografía.
And this is me, acting a little surprised to see that they take pictures of me with my own cell phone, that beauty that I have in my hands is my old Canon 700D, super recommended if you start in photography.
Espero les haya gustado y puedan aplicar la técnica si no la conocían. Un saludo a todos.
I hope you liked it and can apply the technique if you did not know it. Greetings to all.

Hello @manuphotos and thank you very much for another #monomad participation!
Why give the highlight in your post to full color images when we are a black and white community?
We don't get it.
Hi 👋, in my post i use the color image to show the how is done, the moment of the photos so everyone could figure it out the technique. The results of that day was edit in black and white, the result are the main pictures of the post and the one participating, the other one are just to support for learn.
Yes, we understand all that, but it's odd that we need to scroll down half of the post to see the first black and white image, which is what we are here for 🙂
I see, didn’t think about that, i will try to remember that for the next post, thanks for letting me know, I’m still a newbie in this 😅
Thanks, appreciated.
You have some cool portraits, and there's not many people sharing their techniques like you did here. Great stuff 👍
Thanks, that’s why im doing it, i notes so few tutorial in hive and not just about photography
You might have found a niche worth to explore 🙂
Congratulations. Today's #monomad second place is yours.
Thank You very much for participating and for being part of the Black And White Community!
WOW 🤩
Thanks a lot 🙏
