This week over at i heart faces they are having a Dramatic B&W challenge.
We are looking for B&W photos that are dramatic, sensational and/or moody in the way they are presented. Something about your entry must catch our eye as being dramatic or moody for it to be passed along to the judge as a top entry. I thought this photo seemed dramatic with the sun flare, lines of the trees, off kilter angle and the way her eyes seem to be looking right through the camera. I can’t wait to see what everyone else comes up with this week!
This bridge in our local park is my new favorite spot that I discovered in the dead of winter. Now that the snow has mostly melted I was able to go under the bridge to get some great shots looking up. I love the weathered wood and suspension cables that hold it up. There are so many angles to take advantage of here that the possibilities are endless.
So meet Mehandis. I used a gradient to turn this black and white then adjusted by using several level layers to darken and brighten areas. I then added in a photo filter and used a creamy tan to warm up it up a bit. I really love the sharp angles that frame him in horizontally and then his parents legs framing him in vertically.
Thanks for stopping in! Be sure to check out more entries over at i heart faces.
