Here Goes Nothin!

Well, in class we were asked to do an assignment ant put together a 5-picture portfolio of our black and white edited photos. Long story short, here they are :)






It's so hard to pick a favorite! I really like the first, third and fifth pictures. I guess if I HAD to pick one, it'd be the first one. I spent the most time on it trying to make it look the best, although I still don't think it looks the best it could. I'm not quite sure what to do with it though to make it look as crisp and get the contrast I really want. Nevertheless, I'm still a fan of it. If you have any ideas on any of these, PLEASE let me know! Thanks! :D

Now Life To Me Is Black And White

Thanks to our first assignment in photography for the past few days as I've been walking through campus I've been looking at EVERYTHING though a "oh, that would be a cool black and white shot!" point of view. Kara told me she has been too which I find pretty funny in a we're so freakin weird kind of way. This is why she is my twin.
So we were asked to take a whole big slew of pictures and to convert one to three black and white images. This proved to be a lot harder than in sounds simply because I took so many thinking "that would be a good one!"...and then I realize that it's pretty craptastic and "flat" and pick a new one. I think I finally found an ok one...let me know what you think. :)
