NIagara Falls bridge by danette

NIagara Falls bridge

Connecting New York to Ontario. I am re-editing some old photos to b&w. Feedback encouraged.
Who would have guessed some of us would embrace the switch to B&W...even for a bit?! The bridge would be an iconic landmark I'd imagine, and a nice, timeless quality here in B&W.

@Weezilou I'm finding b&w to be a challenge. Since I am a bit buried with my mom moving in, I am not very motivated to go out and shoot. Re-editing old photos is allowing me to re-examine them from another angle and see what looks good in b&w. Over the last few years, I have upgraded to LR and learned much more.

Very nice shot. I've been there a few times.

@danette I think very few of us expected to find the help we've been given on this site, and the ability to learn new techniques even through viewing the photos of others! I look back at my earliest attempts, and it's like taking my children's 1st grade school papers out of the attic! How far we've come...and can see more clearly the path ahead! (More than always a photo a day, it's a classroom where we can try a new technique or two! My best to you as your and your mother settle in :-)

This is a beautiful shot and what a great pov. Looks wonderful in B&W, too.

It's been a good while since the last time I was in Niagara. As a matter of fact, I think it was just before I started my senior year in high school.

@skipt07 It was never on my "bucket list" but I sure love it there. I have been twice--both in the winter.

Works well in bw!

Like the angle and part of the bridge is hidden

Nice b&w, but the brush on the left is very distracting. I've got to get back there, only one time, in winter,hazardous ice on American side.

Nicely composed B&W. Looks like a long bridge.

@bill_fe Thanks, Bill, for the feedback. Given that it was 4 years ago, I would have done it differently today. It's actually the reason I posted it here. I've only been twice, once in November and once late December. At least there are no crowds!

I love that bridge! I always enjoy driving over it. Great B&W!

Nice b&w conversion! It is fun going back to old shots using new editing techniques.
