Seems B&W is not a medium as popular as color
I find that some images are more powerful in B&W

Quite true "KD"!! I dismissed B/W long ago only to realize than it is more difficult than processing color. And can present a more powerful subject than color. Tonality is forgiving in color a bit..BUT B/W

Tonality is the key! You excelled here my friend!!

These are beautiful KD, I really like them. I converted a couple of shots to B&W from an Africa and made big prints. Your conversions are great. I love the tigers.

Dave

thanks so much Dave. Prints of big 5 are so much more powerful in B&W, I think.

KD Sahab,

The B and W versions are gorgeous. There is something in monchrome and you have done wonderful. Just because I am a radiologist, monochrome is my life.

BTW, wondering about the zebra picture. What color were the animals?

YGMV.

When I approach a B&W conversion, the first thing I do is look at each channel separately to see the richness of each. Then I use the most of the richest channel in my mix.

good to know Morris. Will get back to you to get more help.

Simply stunning series. I think these are extremely powerful as b&w images. I'm sure they'd be beautiful in color, but as b&w we really see the animals without being swayed by color.

Superb work, KD. 4, 5, 7 are very special. The tiger portraits 1 & 6 are beautiful, too. But I find it harder to disassociate a tiger from its colour.

It’s different processing B&W and I found that you really had to select the right pictures

You did a great job not only capturing these strong images but also converting them into beautiful B&Ws. Super set. EVFS

How did I miss this thread? Totally excellent, much better than Tarzan in B&W back in the early 60's.

It could have been Jungle Jim -
