Excellent shots Richard, especially #1 and #3 are my favorites.

Re: Exhibit your B&W shots
Very nice Richard. I especially like the silhouetted picture.

Re: Exhibit your B&W shots
Great shot! You need to have good eye to come out with this sort of picture from that kind of happening. Convoys an artistic eye..caporip wrote:Remembrance service at Battle of Britain Memorial, Capel Le Ferne

Re: Exhibit your B&W shots
I really like the portrait of the old veteran.
Re: Exhibit your B&W shots
Another rain based shot from our holidays. We mostly had nice weather, but it is just the few rainy bits inspired me to make more pictures Processed using the rather wonderful Silver Efex Pro.

Re: Exhibit your B&W shots
Otherwise great shot, but with a blue tone this is 'Moonlight and Showers' to me. You could also do a sepia version to see if it looks better - that is more sunshine. Regarding the content itself I rather like how you convey the eye down to stairs and then to platforms. Raining also adds a little texture on top of image which is nice.

Re: Exhibit your B&W shots
As soon as you mention the blue cast I got it exactly - mmm. Because I was there I knew it was day light - but what you say makes perfect sense. I will look at the tone again. I really like the light over the sea. I would like a telephoto shot of just that bit of the image as well. Next time

Re: Exhibit your B&W shots
Yeah, it's interesting how much knowing the original circumstances can affect ones understanding of picture. I believe this shot could work as neutral bw as well - if you are not into sepia. But regarding the blue I love it in bw pictures, having a right amount of it makes pictures look silver and I like it very much. This one might also work differently if printed on paper.Birma wrote:As soon as you mention the blue cast I got it exactly - mmm.

Re: Exhibit your B&W shots
Here is another B&W from the same location - different time of day. A greener tint to this one.

Re: Exhibit your B&W shots
Superb and masterful composition, Birma! Especially the position of horizon with a wall. Brave move which introduces a very classic and graphical outcome. One of the best from you regarding the composition. Tint works nice too.

Re: Exhibit your B&W shots
Thanks Toni . I struggled with where to put the horizon and so I'm glad it worked for you.

Re: Exhibit your B&W shots
Late entry on this couple of shots of the "harp player"
Not sure which one I prefer but I liked the light (even the flare)
