Evergreen in Black & White

[Nita]

I like this in B&W, I think it highlights the water drops and makes them sparkle. Beautiful.

@sansjuan Thank you, Nita! As I had already posted a similar color version earlier I decided to do some processing and I found, for this particular photo, that B&W seemed to suit it better!

The B & W gives it a wet, chill sort of feeling.

[Will Katerberg]

It is nice, Barb. I think that color would distract me from the shapes and textures. I like it!

@redy4et Thank you, Elizabeth! That tells me I captured the day well by converting it to B & W! :-)

[Barb]

@whk Thank you, Will! I agree! The color version was too distracting from the shapes, textures and water drops!

[Stephanie Swift]

This works so well in b&w. Love the drops on the needles and the soft-focus evergreens in the background.

@tristansmum Thank you Stephanie! I hope to develop an eye for what will lend itself well to a great B&W photo... Haven't tried shooting in B&W much yet; only processing after the fact.

[Cathy]

Very crisp and clear... love the raindrops!

@calm Thank you, Cathy!
