7th January 2005

Greksindi, Iraq

On the suggestion of Antidote I had a play with black and white.
This is my first attempt into photoshop black and white.
At first I thought it was good but now I think I have a long way to go.
Hopefully practice and making many mistakes will teach me something.
Advice anyone? Feel free to give some pointers.


Here is the original anyway.

Canon EOS 300D Digital Rebel
1/125s f/5.6 at 48.0mm iso100 full exif

other sizes: small medium large original auto

Excellent portrait! Very well done Anthony!

the b&w emphasises the ruggedness of the man, rather than his smile. both work well but show us different things. how did you convert to b&w? did you use the channel mixer?

Strong portrait of a strong character.
