High Contrast B&W From Color Photo

The main purpose of this posting is to show an example of high contrast b&w from a color photo instead of your typical grayscale, dull, flat approach.

I used Photoshop CS4 to covert the color photo to b&w.

The photo is a random shot i took during my daughter's (Asante) spring break visit, and my two sons, Sola and Shakuur.

2010 Photography Portfolio Shoot

2010 marks the start of a new photography portfolio.  The model in this photo is the lovely Gabrielle Berwick whose also a visual artist.

I also edited this photo with Adobe Photoshop CS4 using the patch tool and a bit of color correction.  One of my goals this year is to strengthen my digital editing skills when it come to my photography.  So as you visit i hope to show a progression in my work.  If not, I'm sure as my followers, you would let me know.
