    Finally got around to editing some older pictures. I wasn't impressed with this image when I took it last summer, but I played with it a bit and converted it to black and white and thought the result was worth sharing.

    I just so happen to be doing lots of b&w photos recently. Almost at 50% b&w. Glad I found this thread... lots of inspiration to keep going with b&w.









    For the first few years of photography, I held the view that there is no point to b&w white as there is always so much color to play with. I only took maybe a handful of b&w photos over 2 years. I took more pictures intended to be converted to black and white over the past month than I would have in 5 years at the pace I was going. I'm starting to even think color can be a little tacky with some shots.


    One major thing that I have realized to be a vital tool to capturing high dynamic images, with least distraction; a lens that has excellent flare control. Nobody has ever told me how important flare control can be.

    (though it can make a shot better)

    Very crisp shot Steve.


    Here's my latest B&W creation, taken today just before a storm came through.

    Not sure if these are among my better b&w shots, but they are more recent. Here are a couple from a trip to Poland. First one is from a park in Warsaw.

    This one is from Auschwitz

    This image was just me messing around with a flash and a bucket of water...
