This is our second of 50 more posts with our 52 on Friday project. Last weeks post for this project can be found here.
Me and a group of 19 other photographers have joined together to challenge each other on a theme every week. Our posts are designed sort of like a progressive dinner. Every post will list a link to another photographer’s blog every week, so you can see everyone’s interpretation. Hopefully you will be able to pick up cool tips, tricks and learn from our incredibly talented group of women. This week’s theme is black and white.
Black and white conversions in digital photography have several methods. One is setting your digital camera to only take a black and white photo via an on-camera filter, or another is via a post processing editing method using photoshop or other editing software. These methods could include channel mixer, lab color method, gradient map or desaturation.
The first thing I thought of when I saw the theme black and white, was not just the conversion of my images to black and white, but the most classic object that already are black and white, piano keys. Piano keys are glorious and the music, exquisite. I love to hear someone play the piano. I have a very close dear friend who also happened to be a roommate all through college and played the baby grand in our living room almost every day. I loved that she still plays and just bought her kids a piano so they could learn. So, Meg….this ones for you xoxo love you more.
