Im not real flash (sorry about that) at B&W conversions, but had a crack with some of these from last nights wander around Nowra. Keen to hear what others think. Thanks

#1 Arches



#2 Cottage Lights



#3 Parallel Pathways



#4 The Shoalhaven Sleeps

hey,
i like no1. and 3
they both grab me and draw me right into the photo
because of the great composition

Well done Norbs, you've done something i could never do, find a source light that makes Nowra look nice

Your B&W conversion leans towards the dark, but i think that your subjects really stand out as a consequence of that. Nice work.

Give me a yell if you want to do a night shoot around Nowra Steve. Would feel a little more secure with someone else.

Good shots norbs. I don't doubt you would feel more secure if you venture under the bridge at night...

I like the b&w images and think the first one looks great - really good way to capture a particularly bland part of nowra.

That's not a bad idea, I'd never go out by myself

I ran in to a couple of interesting characters. One guy asked me how much my camera was worth. I told him it was an old one and was worth bugger all. He then said it looked pretty expensive. Worried, I told him the newer ones are smaller and lighter than this monster of a thing. That seemed to stop his questions.

A 5D and a grip is pretty big

That's where a sturdy monopod comes in handy
