Re: Strolling the Cross (B & W)Very nice, Peter. My preference is for the first. I am surprised to say it, but I actually believe there is too much contrast in the last one.
Regards, Patrick
Two or three lights, any lens on a light-tight box are sufficient for the realisation of the most convincing image. Man Ray 1935. Our mug is smug
Re: Strolling the Cross (B & W)Very nice pictures. I like the first one best. I like the black and white treatment.
Re: Strolling the Cross (B & W)Love the first. Peter you make everyday objects in to art!
Re: Strolling the Cross (B & W)I quite like the Redfern railway workshop one, I am going to go the other way to Reschsmooth and say the contrasty treatment is quite effective given the BW conversion and subject matter, but it is personal taste...
The first one had me looking for quite some time, the brickwork supports on the right remind me of small church, but the doorway shapes give me a middle-eastern feel. Now I am curious to know what the place is! gerry's photography journey
No amount of processing will fix bad composition - trust me i have tried.
Re: Strolling the Cross (B & W)Great stuff Peter, it is always a pleasure to view your work!
I really like #1, all the lines and textures work for. #3 has a great feel as well, I agree that the contrast can be dialled down a bit. Cameron

Re: Strolling the Cross (B & W)Peter,
#1 is good but doesn't quite work for me. I find the opening to the courtyard on the left a bit distracting. #2 is a fountain #3 is really nice. Much better when viewed big. When viewed big, I don't think there is a problem with too much contrast, quite like it. Well balanced with some space in the foreground to lead you in. cheers, André Photography, as a powerful medium of expression and communications, offers an infinite variety of perception, interpretation and execution.

Re: Strolling the Cross (B & W)#1 is perfectly set up for BW. Great image.
