Day 24
Sorry, no rhyme or reason. Haven't had an opportunity to get out and get some fresh images. So I've perused some from earlier this month. They'll be all over the place, as far as theme goes. Sorry about that.
And thanks for all the great and very helpful comments. The images I've seen are wonderful. |

I've seen a few people ask about converting to B&W.
And I am far from an expert at this stuff, but I just wrote a "lengthy" comment on how I, personally, convert to black and white.
And as it took me so long to write, I thought I'd share it all with everyone here :-)
If the picture isn't "right" to start with, then it doesn't matter what PP you do.
At least that's what I've found.
I nearly always use the channel mixer to convert to B&W.
Basically, if I can't get the picture to look good using that method, then I won't bother with it at all!!
I know there are other methods out there that I should and could use, but I just don't feel like learning them at the moment.
I think my brain is getting too full :-)
Anyway, one "trick" I've been shown is to click on the channels tab and then to individually click on the red, green and blue tabs.
Whichever one of those tabs makes my picture look the most like how I want it to look is the channel that I pay most attention to in the channel mixer.
That is, if the blue channel is closest to what i want my picture to look like, then I will have a higher percentage of it selected in the channel mixer.
Oh yeah, don't forget to click back on the RGB channel before you go and convert, otherwise the channel mixer won't be available to you.
That's it.
Easy!

Day 24 - Flower
Embarrassingly behind on commenting. Apologies to all who've kept up, and thanks for the kind and helpful comments on my shots so far from so many of you.
Goal: get my comments given back above my comments received by the end of the weekend!
Best,
Rob |

Day 23 we went to really old broken church that was apparently built facing the wrong way thus condemning it to the work of 'Satan' and has since been left to rot forever.
