Photos NOT OK to edit
.... and some days, like today, I'm stuck at home sick as a dog.

To pass the time, I try to get creative.

if your having trouble rolling it, they make a little machine for that.

I don't have time to be bored or sick. At the moment, I am designing and installing a railing for my 90 foot deck, despite a little snow.
 
That looks very nice sparky. I've noticed that many of these b&w pictures don't jump to extremes, its a gradually going from tints to shades. I almost never see a harsh transition.


Is there a rule in photography that says that things have to be this way?

Nope. I could easily reduce the image to 3- or 4-bits and have your 'harsh transitions'.

I see, but it doesn't really work on this image, it looks too artificial, you would have to get it right in while shooting it.

I don't know of any way to reduce bit depth below 8 in-camera.
 
You could move the lights so a shadow is cast on parts of it. But that is not to say that it would work here, i'm just wondering in general.

Actually i will try to do this in my makeshift studio. :idea:

Sometimes, a black and white (black only and white only) works well.

Wait a minute, local history schools teach that this man has been dead for some time. How old were you when you took his picture?
