photowalk

I joined our regular monthly photowalk on saturday. It was near the UWM campus on St. Patrick's day. It was in the early afternoon, and it was 70° and sunny - perfect!

I took more pics than usual, that seemed to want to be black and white.

The restaurant one does work much better in black and white. Interesting.

I want the girl at the fire station to be in color, though. Not sure why...

NICE! I really like the perspective in the second last and last ones.

I like black and white pictures.

I love them! You have quite an eye for photography!

But there is very little color in the original version. Cream city brick, dark brown and off-white garage doors. White bike, white shirt, blue jeans and I forget what color her scarf was. Probably a brown hat. I thought the blue jeans would unbalance it a little. Maybe the sepia tone I used is too close to the original, and you expect her jeans to be blue, so it bugs you.

Thanks!

A bright red hat & scarf, and blue jeans against a drab background would be good. Make something up! ;-D

B/W is all about form and texture. Color can be a distracting element.

Like that last one. You could see a blue sky, a maroon car, green bushes, and various tones of brown and grey, but none of that is important. All there is, is a guy with his dog, and they're in an alley.

And the first one. In color, the buliding behind the trees stands out.

Thank you!

Personally, I like the black and white photos where one item has been coloured. A particular flower or, leaf or, door, or whatever. It looks more crisp, and visual to me.

You know I love your photography. I just want to know what color the door is in the fourth pic. Also, you could have added in some green just to honor the holiday. ;)

The door was a dark red/maroonish.

As for the green, I'm not done posting, yet. *g*

That's called selective color. And I don't like it. :-)

Also, see above. ;-)
