Newbie with a passion for B & W

Hi! I'm a newbie that loves B & W. I have no formal training, just do what I think is beautiful. Would love to know what someone thinks of some of my photos. C & C welcome!

I'm a fan of black and white and doing my own darkroom stuff. Your embed got scrambled though, try re loading your picture.

Thats really cool, Is it CN black and white film? It seems to have more depth than the stuff I was developing myself.

Edit* Or is it digital? I'm just used to BW being film.

It is just digital. Took it with a Nikon D50 and an 18-55mm lens

kherman - use the img tag to imbed your photo - there's a box on the page you posted that has the syntax on the right side.

it is a nice photo, tho the focus is slightly off in my eyes

to me, it seems that the focus is on the lips. usually, and i think in this case it would work better, you try to get the eyes in sharp focus.
other then that, i think its a good shot. good lighting, pp, etc

Cute kid. Love the facial expression. I would have to agree that the eyes are out of focus. You always want to make sure the eyes are in focus for portraits.
