Mobile Photography Showcase: 10 Stunning Instagram Photos That Use Low Light

This week’s showcase of mobile photography takes a look at 10 photos from the #mobiography hashtag which beautifully illustrate how low light conditions can be used to great effect. Many of this week’s selected images use black and white to enhance the contrast between light and dark. From the dark and gritty silhouettes by lloyd1fox to Michael Kistler’s colourful yet dark Hong Kong street scene, all photos featured this week convey real atmosphere and tell a story.

Featured photographers include lloyd1fox, g_wah, mdkistler, sanj33t, icke_dette_kieke_mal, sabrinamero, roy.nyc and mayrarr27. Check these photos out, follow the photographers and let us know your favourites in the comments below.
