Ok.. So I got response on, "Left For No One" and decided to put some of the techniques to the test, or.. "Try them out".. I based the black and white off #7 on here: 7 Black and White Photoshop Conversion Techniques Then, I got to thinking.. Someone said to get the color photo "perfect" and then convert it to black and white. So I started to experiment with the following adjustments:
Levels
Exposure
Channel Mixer
Shadows/Highlights
Ok, and for the black and white, after the color one was deemed "done", I ran through technique #7.
So, this is what I'm asking for suggestions, advice, and critiques on. The levels, colors, tone, highlights/shadows/mid-tones.. Also, since it is my first black and white conversion in Photoshop using the new found information, I need some critiques on that as well. Please do keep in mind, I know the layout/setting kinda' sucks a little and it's NOT the clearest photo I've ever shot. Also, the 'starburst' was intentional.
