MAY 16

Sugar Land, TX

Conversion rescue...
So, I only took 2 photos today. Both turned out with a queer yellow cast that I couldn't seem
to correct. I don't normally care for color to b&w conversions, because they lose tone levels.
But I wanted my PaD photo to be presentable. I don't want to make anyone sick with the garish,
pukey color... which I later discovered was caused by a reflection.

This turned out beautifully and has a super tonal range. LOL at your description of the color version. This is very pretty. V.

i could NOT get my shot to work today either- it too had a color cast or hot spots with my 2 speed lights.
Today, photographically was a wash (out).

Nice "conversion".

Nice rose and the sun ornament behind adds to the composition.
