I have been debating whether to do the Splash of Red this year as I'm not all that consistent with photographing. But I do love this challenge. So here is my February 1st color shot (now in extras album) reworked to be b&w to start off the month right! Like the color version, it's much more clear and interesting on black as it brings out the foreground which is lost in this smaller version against the white.
Thank you for your wonderful response to the color version, which made it to PP!
If you get a chance, please welcome my friend and colleague to 365. I've been talking to her about joining for over a year so am very excited she's on board! Her album post from today (and yesterday - she's catching up today): http://365project.org/feniceb/365/2016-02-02

@feniceb Thanks Fenice! See how this works? I clicked 'reply' and it automatically sends you notification that you have a 'mention' -- if you look at the top of your menu bar, you'll see that there's a red flag by notifications, which means you have a message. Click on it and it will tell you who the message(s) are from. And I'm glad you liked this!
Oh, the background building fairly stands out when you put it into black and white. And yes, you must view it against black - everything is so much more detailed. Nice capture. Off to visit your friend!
Got sidetracked visiting your friend! Lol! This is great in b&w Taffy especially on black as all the detail in the shadows comes out! A very different feel to your colour version - so interesting to compare the two! Fav!
@pamknowler Thanks for visiting Fenice's page! I'm hoping she'll have time to keep up the daily pace -- but she has a lot re work so it will be a challenge.
@stevecameras I agree - I was totally confused the first time I paid attention and further, I had no idea how to do selective color anyway, so the whole thing was a mystery to me the first year!

FAV.
But I am confused as to what the Splash of Red challenge is given the shots seem to be appearing in black and white....?
The Flash of Red comes from on Feb 14th, the photo should include red.
Thanks for the kind comment, too!
