September Challenge #3: Black and White Photography

[martygreene]

Showcase your application skills, contouring technique, use of light and shadow, and showcase texture. Black and white photographs are an alluring mistress, however she's difficult to please. Tones which stand out in color disappear with her kiss. This is a time to play, practice, and learn.

Photos taken in black and white, or those which have been de-saturated, switched into grayscale, or otherwise adjusted into black and white via photo-editing software are all fine.

Granted, this is an older one, but I plan on doing something new for this as well.

Awww... Martygreene! Very nice! What I need to know is how to get my pics to post nice and crisp. While they look crisp on my computer, once I upload them, they lose definition. Nonetheless, here are my black and whites!!!

Thanks, it was a professional photo-shoot I did as a gift for my boyfriend. I'd post more photos, but they aren't exactly appropriate
