I love black and white photography-- It makes even the stupidest, boring things interesting.

For example -- Some photos I took just now, of course -- Simba doesn't fall into the stupidest, boring section but, I had to add him in it :)

Gorgeous pictures, Kay! Simba is sooooo cute! I love black and white photos too, sometimes pictures look better in B & W than in color. You should take some b & w pictures of Nala!!!!!! :D

Here are my three favorite pictures that I took and changed to black and white:

Actually, I prefer black and white. It's more artsy. I love that one of Simba all stretched out. And I see you haven't cut your hair yet :)
Here's one I took of an old tree near my house. I love it. I got a lot of pics of it.

Definitely! Great pics, Kay! I love the tennis shoes!

Have you tried Sepia tones?? I think they soften the pictures a bit. I love this picture of my neice that I turned into Sepia tones...

Those are cool! I really like the roses, they're beautiful pics.

Here’s some I took of a dragon fly not too long ago.

Micki, I love the one in the purple! How did you do that one? My camera won't do the really close up things like that.

Thanks! That one is negative art, a setting on my camera just like sephia or black and white. There was a storm brewing that day and it just turned out really cool. That's one of my favorites. :) I had to run in shortly after the b&w one when the storm kicked in.

I also really like the solarize setting. I use that one a lot too.

Great pics, Micki!


Valerie -- You can make it negative in PSP like that as well. :)
