Waiting

This shot was taken on a gray day with flat lighting and the results were pretty blah. I was about to pitch it, but then decided to experiment with different BW editing options in Silver FX. I liked this high contrast, high key BW and the way it gave the scene an almost illustrative quality.
I like the simplicity of this! Great in high key!

Quite eerie but I love the detail in the tree with the high contrast processing xx

I think the processing adds very well to the melancholy feel, of something that has been, something gone, washed out with the background

SO glad you didn't trash it! i love how it turned out! i am fascinated by how so many photos i think are worthless of mine can be infused with new life by exactly what you are describing!

@moreyoulessme Thank you, Jeri. Yes, I agree with you. A creative edit can make all the difference and salvage an otherwise uninspiring photo.
