Favorite B&W - week of March 16th - March 22nd

[Paul Myers]

This is a B&W thread - for B&W photography where B&W is the main mode. Selective coloring is OK, Sepia is OK, but the images in this thread should mainly be monotone.

What's your favorite B&W photo from this past week? Share with us what you took this week. Please post only one B&W photo you took. Didn't take a B&W this week? That's OK. Post a B&W from someone else's project that you really fell in love with this week.

Find the B&W you want to share and then copy and paste the code into a reply. You'll find the code below the Facebook and Twitter buttons on the right hand column of that photo.

Here's mine, taken on the 18th of this month.

Only one this week

Probably this one because of the light and smooth bokeh

[Caz]

This one by @chezza as I didn't have any b&w this week

[Alison Tomlin]

@jcarrollphoto oo thanks! Enjoyed looking through the thread too.

[Michelle]

[☮Lee Gordon☮]

think the first of this weeks portraits is my favourite

[Lisa]

[Lil]

@primitiveprobe, I love how you used a simple subject and brought it into a more complex state! I also like how you use B&W but had a touch of brightness, so you see the gears inside the window cleaner's cap!

[Liane]

[AC]

[☠northy]

most of my shots are black and white :)

[Lyn]

Had a dreadful week and am just lucky to have posted a couple of shots today - I have to work hard to shoot b&w but I do like this one:

[summerfield]

[Lisa]

[Jo]

[ThatClayGuy]

A little different perspective

[colie (Nichole Stewart)]

This one made me grateful for what I have in life.

[Kellie]

[Danielle]

[Catherine ♥]

[Carole Imes]

You need to read the narrative on this one by MaryBeth Dailey @espyetta It is hysterical and so creative!

[MaryBeth Dailey]

@cimes1 Oh, thanks, Carol! Haha!

[jim huntsman]

love the wheel

[Jo Jackson]

Was a tough call between two photos of my 4 month old daughter but I think it's this one...

[Ed]

I do like B/W... Feel free to jump on a couple of days for my other favourite... A portrait of my friend Stacey.

[Emmy Walden]

Trying something new here with processing and style.

[Richard Goodger]

[Paula]

[Myrna O'Hara]

This is close to b&w. I liked the simplicity of it. It is Shirley Banford's

[Marie]

[aikiuser (jenn)]

I just realised I didn't post a b/w shot this week, gah!! First time ever. :-\

[Rachel]

[Kristin]

Wrinkles:

[paula365]

[Frank Hymus]

[bruni]

My only one in B/W

[Nick]

I'd have to go with this one, i like it because its a bit deceptive at first glance

[Judi]

My favorite this week is by Nancy @nanderson I like the pattern and light in this.

[Jan Penny]

[Lyn]

still hard for me to CHOOSE to process in b&w, so for me to pick the b&w version of what was the luscious burgundy color of this hydrangea bud and the lacy ivory flowers from last spring is kind of epic!

[April Milani]

[Al Bailey]

[Jennifer]

[Dawn]

March 18, 2013 - My Fine Art entry for the ONS4

[Cindy Muir]

@webfoot - OK - not 100% monochrome, but very desaturated and mostly monochrome. Does that count? :) In any case, I was pleased with the results of this shot. This is the daughter of a friend.

[Sassik]

I'm rather happy with the comp and feel achieved by processing.

[Miley]

[bernadette mcelligott]

This was my b/w and I quite like it.

[Lesley Chisholm]

I've been very slack at posting lately... but I did take a b&w this week!
