I sense at the top you did not convert these images and that even makes it more sensational. Nestor

Nestor Derkach		22-Jan-2011 18:54
I love your conversions, rock scenes are not easy to convert , you have some lovely ones in this gallery. Your photography is beautiful and your choice of coverting to black and white is superb. All with nice compositions and nice titles to the images and nice detail. Vote

Really artistic monochrome imagery. I agree with Raymond's comment - I should be trying to think in B&W a lot more. I always used to when I shot film. Superb! ~BV~

Excellent work, congratulations.

Bart Aldrich		27-Sep-2010 16:18
Wonderful B&W, too. It seems less appreciated on PB than some sites.; but then color is shunned on fine-art photo sites, too. It's all good.!

norbi		05-Sep-2010 19:42

Wonderful b & w gallery, Marcia. In the absence of color, line, shape, form, light and shadow are allowed to play an even greater role.

Raymond Ma		28-Jun-2009 04:44
The exercise to shoot in monochrome is an excellent idea Marcia. There is a certain skill and purity in conceiving the tonality in the final image. The first few images are beautifully done and I am certainly awaiting more...V
