Thought I'd make an attempt at B&W, using SitterS tutorial. Here's the results. I was playing around with off-camera flash and took this one of my 14 year old.

I thought the tutorial was very well done and easy to follow, thanks SitterS. :clap

    Very nice! I'd bump the darks a bit more to give more contrast and crop the top off to give more focus on his face.... Great shot! Nice job!

    Just a note, he's got his mothers fair skin, and I was trying not to make him look too dark. Maybe I tried too hard ne_nau.gif

    2nd one
    I like the second one better--the first one seemed a bit flat to me, but the second one really pops a bit more and makes my eyes focus on him rather than floating.
