January Photo challenge - Go black and white
I would like to ask you to join me in a little challenge, if you want to.
I will take and post various versions of black and white pictures over here this month.
The posts will contain some Info on how I took them, or processed them with the help of my various Photo books.
The shot you see above was taken in Regensburg, Germany in October 2008.
I switched it to b&w and added a Lomo effect.
I hope that this month I will learn how to do it better.
My challenge to my fellow Photogeeks out there is to gather information about b&w photography and share what you found with the Rest of us.
Including your new photos 
Deal?
Well, I’ll do it anyway, so, see you then ![]()
Participants:
Quilly already has her first tip posted and here her second
Janice posted two tutorials last year 1 and 2
John posted Tutorials - Converting Color Images to B&W I and Converting Color Images to B&W II
Dave and Bill are playing along.
Bill has a second one, a beautiful cutout

@Thom - You can post as many pics as you want.
They can be originally taken in b&w or in colour and then converted to b&w.
You can edit and play with it at the computer.
You can play with lighting.
What my idea behind this is, that you look up some Info on b&w photography and use it in your upcoming shots.
Or use the Info that you found while editing your photos
I post a photo(s) on my own blog? or what?
Have a nice Saturday evening...

I am no photographer, but I know what I like.
I like what you did to the photo and it looks vintage to me. Like a photo from years ago.
I like it.
