Post your best Black and White Photo

[HiFiGuy1]

Here are two picture's I recently took while visiting the U.S.S. Alabama BB-60 in Mobile, AL.

The photo were taken with my Nikon 3000, I edited the photo's with Photoscape to give them appearance of pictures from World War 2.

That's just a few minutes from my house! I wish I had known you'd be in the area. Would have been nice to meet a fellow photography enthusiast from TDP.

Love the second shot, too. We've lived here for six years and haven't actually ever been on the ship (I know, shame on me), but this makes me want to go, and take my camera.

This morning's combination of fog and frost made it interesting...



If you don't have good light, I guess really bad light can work as well.


Thanks for looking.

Thanks everyone for the compliments. I am pretty new to photography but really enjoy taking photo's like those I have posted.

I wish I could have more time to take photo's but the weather was awful and we only had a few minutes between down pours.

HifiGuy1 you really should go and check it out. A lot of the ship open to public giving an anyone a lot of different types of shots.

Beautiful B&W's on this page, nice ships Lancer and those old barns have that special eeriness and desolation in that light Don.
@Mark, great portrait, really like the composition and the controlled use of the back lighting and flare, nice loving feel to this shot.

Thanks Steve :-) Although the shot was planned, with the sun so prominent in the frame I had to do some PP-Kung Foo to get the look I liked!

Thanks Steve, honestly, I like them better full size than in web presentation, but overall I was happy with them.

My son Mitch, spent some time together over the break, taught him how to make pizzas from scratch, gave him a pizza maker and all the associated utensils and ingredients. Good times.
