(Main) contests->b/w challenge
I've uploaded this three times and the contrast is still not showing up like in my original shot. I don't know what is going on.
This was taken on the streets of St. Joseph. I believe it was in an alley. I liked the looks of the fire escapes on the two buildings. Made me think of New York City.
Textures my own and one for the B/W Challenge.

This has atmosphere by the bucket load and is a shoe-in to be picked for The Challenge.

"Always carry a flagon of whiskey in case of snakebite and furthermore always carry a small snake." W.C. Fields. So, carry on over to see My Gallery.
Tick, I wonder if the problem has to do with the site server. In any case I think this is a marvelous capture, and your postwork is very well done. Perfect for the challenge. Tigs♥ =^..^=

Nature in all her glory is my uplift on life and so is my love of photography. sandi ♪ ♫
Shows up great to me! I don't know if there's a way, but I think the sky part and the sides of the building should have been a smoother finish though. Just my opinion, and I'm not that smart about pictures!...lol...And thats my favorite song of Creedence's!!!!

I have had the same problem on some uploads Tick not sure what the problem is or if there is a solution. It's a great piece of work .
I like the tones , textures and think it is a great subject matter for B&W . Will do well in the challenge.

I would travel only by horse, if I had the choice. ~ Linda McCartney ~
I've also had the same problem with some of my images, so you're not alone Tick.
I still really like all the textures and detail, excellent work, super B/W Challenge

Have a Beautiful Bright Day, Skates
Oh, I like this Moody image, Tick. It's like the fire escape is the only thing that escaped the fire.

oh yeah, Creedence Clearwater! That's some helluva back door way up there. Great find... It's moody and NYC and looks like an old postcard, and your B&W treatment gives it a gritty texture that I remember from my teen years pretending to be all grown up while visiting coffeehouses in the Village.

"Never stop photographing. It is very likely that your best photograph has not yet been captured"
Anyway, it's impressive, Tick. Beautiful shot, very attractive B/W. Good luck.

Perhaps you should have brightened it a bit before increasing contrast. In any case a very good B/W image with good clear textures Tick.

Smooth seas do not make skilful sailors.
Mighty moody and marvellous Tick!
A great addition to the BWC :)
Sometimes I notice that what I view in my image editors looks less contrasty after I save it to my computer and occassionally do see a further reduction after upload. I also notice a difference with different lighting at home. What looks bright and vibrant late at night with just a side lamp sometimes looks duller in the cold light of day.

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust

Like your take on this one Tick.....BOL!

This Image GRABBED my EYE. That's Why I Stopped By. Thanks For Sharing ! Never argue with an idiot. They drag you down to their level and then beat you with experience
I tried to comment on the first 17 versions, TicK, but they kept disappearing on me. I was starting to wonder if you were doing your Homer Simpson impression and should have been saying, "D'oh d'oh d'oh d'oh". When I first saw the title I was wondering how you were going to include this song, which is actually called "Doo Doo Doo Doo Doo (Heartbreaker)"
Sorry I'm so late arriving at the scene of the crime, but my DSL is getting slower and slower. It now takes 25 seconds to load the full-sized image. Faulty excuses aside, this is a magnificent image. To me it looks like you took a back alley wall and then posted the tenement on top of it. I will not be entering the B/W contest again until this shot is off the list. You are taking gigantic leaps in your post photo work. My hat is off to you. "Faves" and an AC nomination at a minimum. Spectacular work.

Our integrity sells for so little, but it's all we really have. It's the very last inch of us and within that inch, we are free. -V
Reminds me of an old Led Zeppelin album cover Tic, nice work maestro. (o:

If I could tell the story in words, I wouldn't need to lug around a camera. ~Lewis Hine The Earth without art is just 'eh'.
That must be a wide alleyway if you managed to get this perspective. Reminds me more of Canton than NYC. A good perspective and textures in this image Tick. I see the inmates don't all have bars on their windows.

Quality not quantity.
The building / fire escapes remind me of NYC too. I see alot of gray or midtones, but the black fire escapes & window frames contrast nicely with the gray. I like the texture you used ... gives it a nostalgic look. Outstanding work, Tick. This will do well in the B & W Challenge.
