p.1 #1 · B&W Conversions


Like so many others here I grew up with film and kept a makeshift darkroom for years. I always find it a fun exercise to go back into my files and search for images that I feel might convert well. Not all of them do. All input is welcome on what works and what doesn't.
Thanks for taking a look !

A delight to view Gary. 1, 4, 5, 7, 9 - Last are the standouts for me. This might be my pregidice for contrast though sometimes a lack of contrast can be stunning.

What method do you use for B&W conversion?

I have always had a soft spot for B&W, maybe less so for wildlife than other subjects (landscape, architecture), but you did a nice job on this excellent selection. The bears and the terns don't work that well for me but overall great work.
