    Don't often try B&W but here's one attempt....


    Just when you think everythings fine, life slaps you in the face.

    I think the Tollemache House mural actually looks better in B&W than colour, MPH.

    It's sad to see the music shop all boarded up!

    CM - I wasn't sure about yer pic then I inadvertently clicked on it and found the smaller version on flickr so could see it better (pic was too large for my screen) I liked the tracks in the grass and the indents in the hill behind.

    gh - nice light in yer pic but I canna help thinkin the sky is like a scan pic!

    MPH - I am one of the people who like the mural on Tollemache house - I think it is a bit of a Thurso landmark. It looks fab in b/w at night but I agree wi sporran it is a shame about the boards underneath now - it takes away from the style of the building. (LOL MPH dare I ask - any more? My name is not Oliver!)

    Took the shot of the bridge with my new Tamron 17-50mm 2.8 lens,very happy with the sharpness and detail of the image but i overcooked the lights under the bridge and the other dozen or so shots were the same or worse so hands up, i screwed up.
    It is strange seeing 14 point starbursts instead of the 6 on my old lens.
    The second one was done out of boredom.



    Rock Guitar?

    Default Glenfinnan B&Ws

    Some excellent pics in this thread. Here's a few recent snaps that I felt could work well with the B&W treatment...

    I agree with wifie and astroman. You could almost imagine the wall as a Loch Ness type monster lurking in the water!

    Well done, MPH!

    PS - Love yer cool new avatar, MPH! That's kinda spooky too, lol!
