Photography Challenge - Black & White

One more Dahlia. This time a Mandala, of sorts. It looked horrid in color but kind of neat in BnW. Done on my lightbox, 5 exposures from +5 to 0 ev. Oh also some zinnia petals

Reminds me of an Escher. Nice conversion.

Hi Mark,

Tim explains it nicely Here. (Basically, you just need to click on the 'Full image' option when you 'Insert' your upload - you can do this retrospectively).

Ctrl+P or hover over the icons on the taskbar...you'll find it.

Frank, your two photos remind me of the quote from Douglas Adams:

"He was constantly reminded of how startlingly different a place the world was when viewed from a point only three feet to the left."

So right!

These were taken during our Duck Tour in Boston. The first set shows the "One Congress" building in the background. The second set is from the river side showing the Museum of Science. I am sharing the color versions as well as the B&W conversion using my own process in Lightroom. It gives me greater control over the tonal structure of each color.

Some B&W re-edits. Original R7 shots by Karen, R5 shot by Phil and all edits by Phil.

(Re-edit software: DxO Nik Collection, Adobe Photoshop with TK-9 Panels and Topaz Labs Studio 2).

Forgot about this one. That was the actual sky. The sun peaked out for a moment.

I guess I could have provided a few details about that shot. That was a city called Loule in Portugal. We were on our way to a huge indoor/outdoor market that is on every Saturday. I don't replace skies but often will mask the existing sky to increase contrast for my B&W images. After converting this to B&W I did very little, which is rare.

The bike enthusiasts are always there having a cold one. They have some nice machines. Most are lined up on the main street, just to the right.

Imagine the stories she could tell.
