Random Black & White Photos

[navara-au]

Well I kinda like them
Some cameras and most software can convert your pics to B&W.

So post them up!

Hers a few random Photos I have done.
The first 2 I used Infra red mode.

Are you looking for actual panchromatic B&W? I'm about 50/50 B&W/color. Here are a few random ones.

Are you looking for actual panchromatic B&W? I'm about 50/50 B&W/color. Here are a few random ones.

While I had my photo bucket account open, posting some of my very ordinary sunset photos, I thought I would share a few b&w pics and couldn't find a thread to post them to so I started this one (sorry if I missed one that was already started).
Its great to see people still doing b&w's I think since digital has come along people have sadly forgotten about that stile of photography, which I think is a big shame.
Some photos definitely look better in b&w, and with soft ware today it is easily done. Look at Telescooby shot of the woods, it works so well couldn't even imagine it in colour, and jeffryscott's land rover is much more dramatic done in b&w.
BTW I am glad your still doing 50/50 and hope you can post some more of your terrific pictures.

I just got a Nikon D40 as a graduation present a few weeks ago and have found that i really like the black and white/ sepia photos. These were a few from my cabin this weekend. Standard D40 w/ original lens and a UV filter. Any advice on how to improve is welcome.

[hks3sgte]

LOL! I was looking through all of the new pictures (great everyone!) and saw this one. I did a double take at first, my brain said that had to be film. It takes some effort to get a digital image to desaturate and look correct as a monochrome, sorta like...

Yeah! I like Tri-X in my old junk, I think the photos look right with it behind the 45 year-old Nikkor-S Autos and Elmar... BTW, Kodak introduced Tri-X in 1954, talk about longevity. And people have trouble holding onto a digital camera for a whole year!

You're absolutely correct. I shot that frame with my 1971 Canon FTb with the 24mm f/2.8

Black and white film is fantastic!

Great shots.

[Rob O]

self-portrait ... done while killing time waiting for the sun to set so I could shoot wholly more interesting subjects. :)

This is a 3-exposure HDR, intended to save detail in the shadows due to fairly harsh afternoon light creating about 7-stops of dynamic range. Shot with wireless remote, camera set to auto bracket (+1 1/3 to -1 1/3 EV) and 2sec self-timer (which let's the camera shoot all three exposures in rapid succession, versus having to trigger the shutter manually three times).
