This shot happened completely by accident. I was just testing out the Tamron 90mm that I had just acquired on my display wall of cameras. Shot color but I changed it to B&W because it just seems like a classic shot that belongs in B&W. The camera and lens that are being focused on are an ME Super SE and the M 28 f/2.8 with an Asahi Pentax lenscap.

Simple, clean and classic. The timeless beauty of Pentax on display. Makes for a cool desktop background too.

nice shot. I was wondering what your approach/procedure is to change a color image to B&W?

I'm not doing anything special, just flipping it in Lightroom.

Excellent, and good call on the B&W conversion.
