Land of Wine, Cheese and B/W

GliderPilot · Jan 1, 2007

When I was in Grade 12, I went on a March break tour of France. Naturally the camera came with me. All I had on me for the trip to my chagrin was a roll of B/W film. I am usually a fan of colour shots, but I think these worked out. Feedback would be much appreciated.

1. Notre Dame de Paris

2.Chenonceaux (The castle of the ladies)

3.The Eiffel Tower

4.Rouen Cathedral

5.Chambord castle

Pas mal.

I rather think the roll of B&W brought you good result. It's quite easy to blow out photo details in strong sunlight with digital conversions.

One small suggestion: you may rotate #5 counterclockwise a little. This can be done rather easily in PS or GIMP.

I must have not aligned it properly on the scanner. Sometimes I don't really notice until someone points it out.

Here's one I took with a disposable camera. I don't think it turned out too bad.

Hello, where is this beautifull country ????? :mrgreen:

I have to say your first B&W ( Notre Dame) is grey, not very nice to me

Other ones are much more better.
The grain on eiffel tower give a kind of old style of begining of past century

You did a fine job with such "large" subjects.
