Thread: WINNER ANNOUNCED ! - The 4th Serious Compacts Salon Challenge : Gritty Black & White

Sorry guys - it took so long - I didnt realise I had to pick this!!

So this challenge is for "gritty black & white " photos of anything you like !!! (film or digital)

two weeks from today till Friday 24th of August !

Best of luck to everyone

no one has an excuse for not entering this one. I have some I love in the archives, but I'll try to shoot an original and bust out of my slump.

Great! Let's play at once:

Looks like I'll be breaking open some tri-x ...

(note to Luke: tri-x is a kind of film)

I thought it was just a name of a digital pre-set in photo editing programs

Slump here too - faar too much going on in Billworld at the moment. I shall try and shoot something new too - good choice of topic.:)

I'm with you, Luke, I need a challenge to get out of the house. Gritty eh...

I reserve the right to change this and believe that's in the "rules" o' the road on these challenges, however since I am pretty sure I won't be getting any new gritty black and whites here is one that most of you have never seen before (perhaps understandably so).

From the archives but so far, unprocessed and unseen.

I felt kind of sorry for these cyclists.
