this is for last week's Dogwood challenge (week 6)... the instructions were that there is...
"...no limit on what you shoot this week, as long as the image is pure. No filters, presets or other edits. Basic exposure corrections only this week...."
i am totally unclear on what this means... "SOOC" i get, but "basic exposure corrections" not so much... in any event, this is only very mildly tweaked in LR... basically converted to BW without a filter and bumped the whites a smidgeon...
I wasn't sure what to do with that instruction either, because it would suggest using jpg and colour. Which in the middle of a b&w month doesn't work. My in camera b&w sets everything, so I have no control over it, so I didn't want to use that - I ended up converting to b&w using a preset in GIMP and nothing else.
