As life goes on

[mariehass]

As life goes on, I do more and try new things. I recently took a course that taught black and white conversions, and vowed to take the time to create images that were my personal best.

Please tell me how I did.

Well, the course was worthwhile because these are very nice conversions. I've seen the first two before, and haven't done a side-by-side, but they appear to have a little more "snap" than I remember. I like the general store a lot. I'd probably crop the top and also crop off the back of the store. It's the front of the store and the shadows on the pavement that really hold my interest.

These all look really nice Rie, very well balanced.

The only one that doesn't look quite right is the handsome thing in number 3, or rather the background is just a touch too bright which makes it look almost like a composite image.

The Court House and The General Store are my favourites FWIW.
