The Chute

This is for black and white February - day 9.

I have used this photo for its textural and linear qualities. Also I worked on enhancing the contrast between the wood and the metal in LR. The snow provides a little highlight.

Thank you for your comments and favs on yesterdays photo of Holly in black and white.

I love how the corrugated iron has come up in b&w, it really shows off the lines so nicely.

Your silvery whites are just gorgeous! Is there some "trick" to that?! I just keep murmuring "wow"!

[Joyce]

Wow. This is great processing Kathy. A great choice of subject as well. Fav

[Robyn]

Wonderful lines and textures

This has such drama to it. That angled shoot (if that's what it is) really stands out against all the vertical lines of the metal. You keep finding the best things to shoot for this B&W challenge.

@Weezilou Hi Louise thank you for the comment, I find now that I am processing my B&W photos in LR it really makes the whites come alive.

[Louise & Ken]

@radiogirl Very interesting to know; thanks! I see a lot of conversation about LR (which I've not used) and it helps to know what application is making a photo this good!
