AOL Community Photo Challenge: Landscapes in Black & White
FUN Category!
Take a Landscape photo in B & W or transform a photo into B & W.
The Fence That Once Was
I hadn't intended on entering this particular challenge since I am not a B&W photographer by nature. However, as I was setting up my display at the DRAM which happens to include one B&W print that I created last year, I thought I might give it a try. It is good practice for me to occasionally pick out a picture to convert to B&W and play with it a bit until it looks right. B&W requires very close attention to contrast and tonality which requires the right image to start with and the right set of tweaks to finish it. The picture that I have selected here is a popular one from one of my recent Treks that I thought would make a good B&W study. It does show that any of my pictures can be converted to black and white if the client so desires.

I like :) it bares well to black and white. It tells me of a strength that's faultered in one part, but still trying to do what it was intended for. I like your fence very much. Rache

I love this picture, the black & white gives it such an old feel. Nice job.

What a different feeling I get looking at this picture in B&W. I like it quite well but the color one is my favorite. You can win the challenge with this picture I am sure.
