Sky and Sail in B&W
Posted by Sailor, 10-24-2009, 02:01 PM Sailor is offline

Another sky shot taken last week while sailing - obviously converted to B&W.

Another heavenly view.
I kind of like the impact the colour one had on me.
This one lacks a certain punch for me, but it still one of those shots that makes you stop and ponder...

Thanks for the kind words and the feedback, guys. Here is the color version of the same image. Had my brain been engaged, I would have attached to the original post. I gotta say, I'm still partial to the B&W.

I prefer the B x W as well Jer. The blue sky and sun are a bit overpowering in the colour image.

I like the conversion Jer but I think it needs the sky to be a bit darker in the upper right. Tough to do w/o blowing the highlights farther, but it's doable. Still love the overall image though!

It's amazing how many photo's you're able to make on one single boat.

Pretty much my thoughts as well, Tom. Thanks for the comments.

Hey, thanks Mike. I'll poke around with it some more.

Thanks, Kevin. However, I am in a rut - I need to do some shooting on dry land now that the (relatively) cool weather is upon us here in SE Texas.
