Taking photographs that reflect your own personality and point of view can be accomplished in many ways. Your images can have different effects using filters. There are neutral density filters, soft focus filters, and many other types of filters. Color filters can be used in photographs that are black and white to make the images sharper like a making the skies appear whiter. Filters that are commonly used:
The subject of your photo should be studied. In a photo of the horizon, you will want to see a difference in the foreground and the sky. A graduated filter will create contrasts. Graduated filters are muted on one half and the other half clear glass. Using a graduated filter will make the sky and foreground less intense. The effect you achieve will be based on the filters that you use.
Polarizers are also commonly used. This is mainly used when a photographer is taking a photo of water in sunlight. This will prevent the bright sunlight from creating a glare on your photo image and the sky will appear a denser blue.
You can use filters to create effects that create moods for different seasons of the year. Orange and yellow filters will encompass nature's beauty. Different filters will create different moods like for a cooler feeling you can use a blue filter. Blue filters can also correct problems with color problems from fluorescents or tungsten. It will counteract the greenish tint that can be problematic in these situations. When the day is cloudy and dreary using a warming filter will bring a glow to the subject of the photo. Will using filters help to correct problems with my photographs?
Yes, sometimes a green cast will happen in a room with fluorescent lighting or on a cloudy day. This problem can be corrected by the use of a blue filter. If you were taking a photo of an apple tree, you could use a green filter to mute the color of the leaves and make the apple's red stand out. The color of the filter will mean you are "filtering out" that particular color. A green filter will prevent green from taking over, as a red one will prevent reds from being too prevalent. A green filter will lighten greens, and a red filter will lighten reds. It is up to you what effect you want to have for your image. The best way to learn about using filters is to experiment with them, layer them and change them up until you get a feel for how each filter or filter combination will affect your images.
