I like all of the creativity! Very well done by all. I will post a recent conversion, but it's probably kind of weird. Not really creative, just documentary in nature. For whatever that is worth. Not much. I need to get back into the B&W mindset... try to visualize things in B&W. The funny thing is... when I first started-out taking pictures in the mid-late-1970's - that's all I'd shoot. B&W. Because it was a lot cheaper than color. Develop-only with a contact sheet. Then I would go to a "rental darkroom" and print. Price Photo Lab on Roosevelt Way. B&W.
