These are all so beautiful, I wish I could see them all mounted on some walls to enjoy properly.
I've been fiddling with some images lately and converting to B&W because there were too many problems with light/colour casts and other distractions. I'd like to share
I just posted this one in the critique forum, but figured I post it here too.
It's not blurry. It's bokeh.

Here is a digital conversion of my youngest daughter Sarah. She seems to tense up when she know I'm pointing the camera at her in this candid capture she is very relaxed.
Don't forget about the Gallery. Are your photos there??

I originally posted a b/w of this scene '1080 Beach', but replaced it with this now toned image. To me, the toned image is still just a black and white, but a toned image pushes the b/w envelope somewhat further.
'Incoming Tide 1080 Beach' ... on the New South Wales South Coast.

The rugged Indi Wilderness has been burnt to a crisp over the last two weeks ... I'm wondering what land hasn't been burnt out over these last few years, here in SE Oz.
The scientists say it will get even hotter ... how hot do they want it? I can't make my blacks blacker than this.

George Zimbel: Digital diahhrea is a disease for which there is a simple cure. Take one frame of a scene. It is exquisite training for your eye and your brain. Try it for a month. Then try it for another month…then try it for another month…..
Here is one of my daughter-in-law that I like in black and white.

One of our 3 dogs(oops I mean kids) Malcolm getting the sunlight thru one of the bay windows while sitting on top the leather chair. Yep he has a real tough life.
