This is my first b&w here, and so far the only one!

@kt8ird Thanks Kate! I still think it looks like a superimposed shot from Hitchcock's Birds movie!

Because I dragged them out of their car to do this piece and it's the first time I've used the shadows and highlights after the b&w processing and it 'worked'.

@sidecar Hilarious. I hadn't thought of it that way! I love her story and her expression. Love the missionaries, too. :)

I enjoy getting a shot where high contrast b&w improves the image. Silhouettes and strong lines seem to just lend themselves to this kind of expression. That's what I was going for with this one of the railroad trestle and a family taking a late afternoon walk.

@jo13 Great portrait. I wonder what kind of stories this guy has to tell. And what's up with those shoes?

The composition worked well, and the processing turned out OK too.
