Love it. From the Ansel Adams College of Black and White Channel Mixer. I'll bet the original sky was perfectly innocuous, and the B&W conversion dramatized it! :evil

Exactly! The scene stood out in my minds eye yet the colors did nothing to enhance it. B&W saved it.

Bicycle tire and fence: Line and Curve??


I am trying to get a good handle on what appears to be the next challenge.

:nod Looks like lines are central to the composition to me.

This picture is gorgeous! Could you show us the color version? I've never done black and white. Oh, a couple of shots, just went to the color thing and desaturated all the way to B&W or clicked on change to black and white. Then maybe to "contrast" and raised that. Don't even know what chanel mixer does. I can read the tutorial and play around I guess. But, I'd like to see what you had at the start.

Ask and you shall recieve... this is right from camera no adjustment other than sizing for attachment and making file size smaller.

BTW this photo in the B&W conversion won 1st place in a wide angle challenge
