39 Apr 23 Comment I agree with the comments about cropping/composition. I would like to see the entire grill and right headlight. I think symmetry would work well here. I think this makes for a nice b&w because it is more about lines and shapes than color. Apr 12th
39 Apr 23 Comment I also prefer version 2. The lighting is better and of course the clouds add interest. The light in the original made it difficult to get a good exposure. Shooting into a bright sky with heavy shadows on the subject create a problem. I think photographing this building with light on the front of the church would make a more compelling image. I would like to see more contrast and detail in the stones on the church.

39 Apr 23 Comment Nice story telling image by including the man at the gate. The tonality is well done. It is a bit busy for my eye. I tend to like more simplicity in b&w images. I prefer the color version. A little tight on the left and I don't care for the shadow in the bottom right. With that said, your conversion to b&w was technically well done in my opinion. Apr 12th
39 Apr 23 Comment Although this makes a nice b&w I prefer natural color in wild animals. Nice separation between background and subject. Nice contrast in the lion's mane. Maybe brighten eyes a bit. Nice b&w conversion. Apr 12th
39 Apr 23 Comment I like the depth of field, the catch light in the eyes and the pose. I prefer more contrast in b&w portraits. What lighting did you use? I agree with cropping in on the left. Apr 12th
39 Apr 23 Comment The clouds add drama/interest. I feel the tones are nice and like the angle you chose to capture this image. The bottom distracts my eye a little. I think cropping from the bottom slightly would help. Apr 12th
39 Apr 23 Reply Agree with your suggestion about thin border. Apr 12th
39 Apr 23 Reply I did not photograph this image in b&w with camera, but converted it in photoshop with the b&w adjustment sliders. I moved the yellow and red sliders in opposite directions to achieve the contrast I like between blacks and whites. Apr 12th
