I was out shooting flowers last spring when this huge weather front moved in right over top of me. I was up high enough that I could get a really nice image out of the clouds as they shot past me. This is the black and white conversion of that image.
I used Nik's Color Efex for the conversion and then added a bit of surface blur to soften the clouds a bit. Last thing was a bit of dodging and burning.
This image works very well in B & W, I like the contours, different shades of this composition...well done effects
Julie, I like the layered look to the sky. It reminds me of mountains. I might take a sliver off the top if it were mine. I think the softness you added makes the clouds look like they sweep across the sky.
Nice image and application, Jules.
Nice gradations and flow.
Julie, this is wonderful! I like the layers of cloud and the formation. The shades makes it so much more interesting. Beautifully processed.
Love the shapes and shading, Jules. Great capture and processing! :S3:
Sweet image. Don't think it would work in color... You achieved really nice tonality. Not that easy in digital. Have you made a print of this image? I am still having difficulties getting good B&W prints from my inkjet printers...
Hi Julie, very nice cloud formations. Love the layering and the B&W tones are perfect. Wouldn't change a thing!
Beautiful, Jules, love the lines and tone variation to the clouds, your B&W conversion works really well. Nice touch with blur to give it that softness.
