Sydney in Black and White
Here are some black and white shots, something I'm not particularly good at, but I'm trying to improve. All of these were taken in the later part of the day as the clouds and rain rolled in, it made for some interesting skys. Critical feedback is welcome!
clouds look really awesome in the first craig!
was that taken with a wide angle?? Nathan

All shots care of the 18-200VR. But it was at it's widest for this shot.
oh cool, seems a lot wider, like a 12-24 or something, very nice. the black and whites are great btw, although on this crappy laptop monitor it looks like number 2 could do with a tad more contrast. i'm most likely im wrong tho.
thanks. Nathan

Thanks NJ, I had intentionally kept the contrast a little lighter on the 2nd shot to keep a bit more detail in the trees, that may of been a mistake.. but it looks ok to me just lighter in comparison...
Craig - #1 and #2 are excellent shots, especially in B&W - great detail. Can’t comment on #3 and #4 as I am STD of the SOH

Craig, #1 is a stunner. Great shot and PP.

Craig, I feel the first one is probably the strongest out of this set. The lower angle which you have taken the image accentuates the height and dynamism of the clouds, resulting in a stronger image. The clouds help lead the eye to the buildings, as if they didn't stand out enough
