Someone may remember when I posted this in color. I have been playing around with channel mixer in Photoshop to convert images to black and white and this is one image I tried it on.

Must have been before you removed all your images, I can't remember if I had a chance to see the original, but this is fabulous in B/W.

I don't know what the color version looked like, but the B/W version is excellent.

I really like the light and shadow effect the b/w has given this. Nice work.

He probably has a gun in there and is heading for your vantage point COG. It looks good in b/w, especially the shadows.

Never saw the Original post, though, I think this Shot was meant to be Monochrome! Love the details of the Cafe tables and Chairs through the Glass!! The street, the Sign and the Subject all flourish in Clarity!

Very nice, Cindy. Never saw the colour version, but for this subject material I'm sure it's my favourite.

I remember this one, too. It looks great in black and white. You must be having a blast with your older shots. I like to do that too.

It's a cool street scene that works well with no color. I did not see the other version but this one is just great! Super job!

It could very well be a photo from the forties. Nice job Cindy.

Cindy, although you've posted the original colored version a couple of years ago, I still can remember it. Think it even originates from 2007 or 2008. Because you deleted the original, a comparison can't be made, but I think you can be satisfied by the result.

Regards, Cornelius.

Cindy, I do remember that one, and by Mr. C.'s comment it does not seem that long ago, how time flies! I think this is a superb B&W. I'm a fan of such work even though I have done very little of them. Tigs♥ =^..^=

I don't remember the other one either. I really like this artistic render and think the black and white is ideal.

Excellent capture so very well composed and B&W is the way to go with it too. Now this shot could truly tell a story.

The reason why the sun sets in the evening is because it wants to see the sunrise in the morning. I rise in the morning because I want to see them both. RvdB

Cindy - Beantown at the NAPP workshop - I remember the scene and the color version of this image. This b/w version works well for the comp. As I recall, the restaurant front was black, so it frames the focal area very well here. Thad
