BELINDA GROVER PHOTOGRAPHY

STOPS ALONG THE WAY

OFF THE MAIN (TWO PHOTOGRAPHS)

16 Comments

This photograph was taken in Montreal just off St. Lawrence Boulevard. This area of the city has plenty of street art; the play of light and shadow makes for interesting photography. I used Macphun’s Tonality Pro to convert the photo to Black and White. My main interest was the B&W version and working with contrast, detail, and tones.

    Yes! I love these hidden treasures. When I lived on st. Denis my building had (still has) a great art piece that reads “all the mountains know me” …they city is great like that. Thanks for this.

    This is beautiful Belinda. And I have to agree that the black and white adds so much more character to the picture,I’m surprised! 🙂

    Amazing how the focus changes when converted to black and white. I notice more detail.

    The B/W brings out the lines and patterns much more than the colour.

    Both versions are equally appealing in different ways. Nice!

    The light, shadows and colours are wonderful, Belinda! The geometrical structures and patterns certainly works the eye in both images! Fabulous!
