They may not be what you typically shoot or what you really want to be shooting. But that doesn’t mean you can’t stretch your creative muscles a little and create some memorable photos.</p> <h2 data-section id="express-the-mood">Express the mood</h2> <p>The first mistake is assuming that when your mood doesn’t match the mood of the weather or scene in front of you, you should pack it up and go home. Viewers connect with photos because of emotion and emotions are highly tempered by mood.</p> <p>While gray moods are not as popular to express as say, a sunny golden sunset, they are just as prevalent. I like to highlight the relative emptiness of a scene when the color has been sucked out of it and show a sense of loneliness when possible.</p> <div id="attachment_143081" style="width: 760px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><span class="responsive-image wp-image-143081 size-full" style="width:750px"><span class="space" style="width:750px; padding-top:66.67%"></span><img data-recalc-dims="1" loading="lazy" decoding="async" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-143081" class="wp-image-143081 size-full" src="https://i0.wp.com/digital-photography-school.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/DPS-Gloomy-Gray-Day-Photos-001-8.jpg?resize=750%2C500&ssl=1" alt="Tips for Doing Photography On Gray Gloomy Days" width="750" height="500" srcset="https://i0.wp.com/digital-photography-school.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/DPS-Gloomy-Gray-Day-Photos-001-8.jpg?w=750&ssl=1 750w, https://i0.wp.com/digital-photography-school.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/DPS-Gloomy-Gray-Day-Photos-001-8.jpg?resize=300%2C200&ssl=1 300w, https://i0.wp.com/digital-photography-school.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/DPS-Gloomy-Gray-Day-Photos-001-8.jpg?resize=600%2C400&ssl=1 600w, https://i0.wp.com/digital-photography-school.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/DPS-Gloomy-Gray-Day-Photos-001-8.jpg?resize=90%2C60&ssl=1 90w, https://i0.wp.com/digital-photography-school.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/DPS-Gloomy-Gray-Day-Photos-001-8.jpg?resize=717%2C478&ssl=1 717w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px"></span><p id="caption-attachment-143081" class="wp-caption-text">Washington State Ferry alone in the gray of Puget Sound.</p></div> <div class="pb-ads pb-ads-ruleset-ad pb-ads-all"><div data-fuse="21770336820"></div></div><h2 data-section id="add-some-grit">Add some grit</h2> <p>In the days of film, the higher ISO emulsions (think ISO 1600 and more) allowed for <a href="https://digital-photography-school.com/how-to-shoot-in-low-light-9-commonly-asked-questions/">photography in low light</a> but was a trade off for what most of us consider image quality. The emulsion accomplished the low light performance by having larger grains of silver, which were far more visible than their ISO 50 counterparts, which tended to blend smoothly and be almost invisible. That grain didn’t do well for fine art landscape photos, but it worked wonders for conveying the grit of a scene.</p> <p>Grit is a hard thing to define. It’s not necessarily dirty, but it’s not sharp and clean, either. It’s a little muddled and it’s more real than posed. It’s more of a feeling than anything else and it is available more on gloomy days than when the sun is bright.</p> <div id="attachment_143080" style="width: 760px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><span class="responsive-image wp-image-143080 size-full" style="width:750px"><span class="space" style="width:750px; padding-top:66.67%"></span><img data-recalc-dims="1" loading="lazy" decoding="async" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-143080" class="wp-image-143080 size-full" src="https://i0.wp.com/digital-photography-school.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/DPS-Gloomy-Gray-Day-Photos-001-9.jpg?resize=750%2C500&ssl=1" alt="Tips for Doing Photography On Gray Gloomy Days" width="750" height="500" srcset="https://i0.wp.com/digital-photography-school.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/DPS-Gloomy-Gray-Day-Photos-001-9.jpg?w=750&ssl=1 750w, https://i0.wp.com/digital-photography-school.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/DPS-Gloomy-Gray-Day-Photos-001-9.jpg?resize=300%2C200&ssl=1 300w, https://i0.wp.com/digital-photography-school.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/DPS-Gloomy-Gray-Day-Photos-001-9.jpg?resize=600%2C400&ssl=1 600w, https://i0.wp.com/digital-photography-school.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/DPS-Gloomy-Gray-Day-Photos-001-9.jpg?resize=90%2C60&ssl=1 90w, https://i0.wp.com/digital-photography-school.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/DPS-Gloomy-Gray-Day-Photos-001-9.jpg?resize=717%2C478&ssl=1 717w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px"></span><p id="caption-attachment-143080" class="wp-caption-text">Lighting candles in Kathmandu to chase away the gloom.</p></div> <p>It can also be added to photos in post-production. Lightroom has a section to <a href="https://digital-photography-school.com/tips-creative-grain-lightroom/">add grain back into a photo</a> with three different sliders to show just the right amount of grit you are looking for.</p> <h2 data-section id="think-on-the-grayscale">Think on the Grayscale</h2> <p>With all the wonderful colors we experience in the world, I think the thing we like least about the gloomy weather is that it compresses our palate to fewer options. Or so we think. Just because the colors aren’t popping like they do in bright sunshine, doesn’t mean you don’t have a range of options.</p> <p>Enter the grayscale and zone system. For a primer, <a href="https://digital-photography-school.com/how-to-use-the-zone-system-to-learn-about-metering-and-exposure-compensation/">check out this article</a>. The idea is different colors and patterns get accentuated differently when seen in just grayscale. Even composition should change a little when considering grayscale photos. Contrast can be enhanced if you like.</p> <p><span class="responsive-image aligncenter size-full wp-image-143088" style="width:750px"><span class="space" style="width:750px; padding-top:66.67%"></span><img data-recalc-dims="1" loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-143088" src="https://i0.wp.com/digital-photography-school.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/DPS-Gloomy-Gray-Day-Photos-001.jpg?resize=750%2C500&ssl=1" alt="Tips for Doing Photography On Gray Gloomy Days" width="750" height="500" srcset="https://i0.wp.com/digital-photography-school.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/DPS-Gloomy-Gray-Day-Photos-001.jpg?w=750&ssl=1 750w, https://i0.wp.com/digital-photography-school.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/DPS-Gloomy-Gray-Day-Photos-001.jpg?resize=300%2C200&ssl=1 300w, https://i0.wp.com/digital-photography-school.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/DPS-Gloomy-Gray-Day-Photos-001.jpg?resize=600%2C400&ssl=1 600w, https://i0.wp.com/digital-photography-school.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/DPS-Gloomy-Gray-Day-Photos-001.jpg?resize=90%2C60&ssl=1 90w, https://i0.wp.com/digital-photography-school.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/DPS-Gloomy-Gray-Day-Photos-001.jpg?resize=717%2C478&ssl=1 717w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px"></span></p> <div class="pb-ads pb-ads-ruleset-ad pb-ads-all"><div data-fuse="21770308876"></div></div><p>I’d start by using the <a href="https://digital-photography-school.com/how-to-use-monochrome-preview-to-compose-better-color-photos/">monochrome setting on your camera</a>.

It’s a tried and true method of finding more interesting subjects, or for framing subjects more interestingly.</p> <p>If the background of your subject is drab and dull, work to crop it out in-camera. It’s a bit of forced tunnel vision and it can help bring out new subjects when the skies are gray.
