Ok this thread will be dedicated to talking about and showing your black and white photography. This is not limited to digital SLR's or anything else.

If you have any tips to achieve better black and whites or ways to convert to Black and white in post processing then this is the place to share.

I must say black and white photos must be one of my faviortes.

i agree...it gives them more character imo.

i think it depends on the photo

Jon, Love the photo other than the shadow that is going around his face that covers half his face cause of the high lighting from the sun. Wish we had people like that to take photos of tho.

I'm gonna have to come to ATL one day and shoot a REAL city. ha ha

Yeah I was almost tempted to get my flash out but I got lazy. And I took that in Savannah not ATL. But we do have a lot to see around here.

already seen it on flickr and still love it. Anyway to make the vignette smoother so it's not so obvious? like that way it would look more like natural light fall off.

Thanks man. Full size it isn't as noticeable. But I lightened it a bit and replaced it above.

yeah that looks a LOT better IMO. But I'm not big on a lot of editing although I know sometimes it is needed. We need to get u to host some editing classes online. ha ha we can all get on ichat or something and do screen sharing
lol

im down for that

Yeah we can do that.

CaptainL, that almost looks like one of ur paintings. ha ha

Lol, yeah. I was at a show a few weeks ago and noticed that big ol' mushroom in the mulch and had to take some pics of it.

BUMP

rcf, for that shot, i would have upped the aperture and tried to get everything in focus

Yeah, I can see how that may have improved it... It was dusk and rather low light and I was hand holding, not sure if I would have gotten it to come out, but I see where you're heading. Thanks for the feedback.

The object was loneliness so I went for the higher contrast look.

You can spend Valentine's Day with money or women... This year it's money for me :\

Well good thing you don't have a woman because you're broke.

^Maybe a woman is to blame for his being broke...
