Ok, I seriously didn't want to post a black and white photo because it is just too easy. But this one really struck me and I wanted to share it. This is the same boy from two days ago and I was finishing up their family photos. I generally like to process and gussy up my favy's first to send out in an email. I don't know if it is the angle or because I processed it B&W. It really has a good feel to it. When I process a photo to B&W I use photoshop CS3's IMAGE / ADJUSTMENTS / BLACK AND WHITE. You can adjust the colors to your liking. I found that the image usually looks a little dull after B&W'ing it. So I then go to IMAGE / ADJUSTMENTS / BRIGHTNESS-CONTRAST, and give the image a hair more brightness and some decent contrast. It is usually about 5-10% on the brightness and about 20-30% on the contrast, depending on your desired effect. The same settings on the camera as the one I posted 2 days ago as well as the additional photoshopping. You need to click on the image to see it larger to get the full effect. I hope it strikes you like it did me.
