Yes sonny boy, I could be your dad, never know. Btw love that skulls shot, still haven't figured out what it is.
Love,

One of the things I found surprising about HIBW is how much latitude is still in the files if you want to process them just a bit. The toning in Don's shots above tell me he imported those jpegs into SEP for processing. I haven't been out shooting much recently, but here are a couple of HIBW shots I did a couple of months ago that benefited a LOT from a bit of processing. In a way I guess it sort of defeats the purpose, but I just can't leave 'em alone and I don't think it detracts from the basic feel of the photo. Here are three before and after...

Ray, you're a man after my own heart. Great stuff

Will, here's what I wrote on Flickr:

The first thing I thought was - stellar. Next, I thought how this is another example of what excites me about your pictures - they're intense.

They're your eyes Will, no matter which camera you use.

After falling for this picture, I couldn't help but think of Bill Brandt's black and whites" www.billbrandt.com/Shop/printshop.html

Looking forward to more and more, Will.

Spode,
I tried to increase your image size but alas, no luck.
If you need assistance, either the "no GRD3 BB or myself are here.
Of course the mods are also but they are very busy peeps.

Nice stuff everyone. This is the only camera ever that I can live with a jpeg file.
Pete, ya gotz yers yet?

Well, if I click on Spode's it's plenty big - and quite wonderful!

Roger that gal but I thought it would draw more having it large on the post.
Your right of course... I'm always wrong...boo hoo

If ya wanna try the camera BB.... You know what ta do...

No,no... I agree that larger attachments would be better, Don. Uploading to the gallery is even better...or embedding from a website.

Oh, and I will continue to admire the GRD3 from afar.

Wonderful B & W here I like high contrast images. Now I'm feeling inspired too!
