    This is another very cropped image of reflections of buildings in downtown Tampa. I think the crop accentuates how distorted everything is in the image - when I look at it, it looks almost like a parallelogram (I'm not a geometry major so maybe that's not the correct term I used Nik Silver Efex Full Contrast and Spectrum on this one.

    Lovely, black and white. Looks like mirrors in house of glass at fairgrounds. Like the composition, the lines in the image are wild.

    It's like those fun house mirrors! I love that it repeats in each window pane. The contrast of the swirly images with the parallel lines is very effective, especially in b&w.

    You're really showing a lot of versatility with these black & white images. The tones and lines in this are wonderful. So many lines in different directions adds a very positive tension to this one.

    Wonderful reflections and graphic design. Converting to B&W works perfectly here. Beautiful tones. Love the distortions held withing the many rectangular frames. Well done.

    Another great architectural shot! I love all the reflections and lines in this one, very cool. You are getting some very nice tonal range and contrast to these images.

    This is excellent, Cheryl. I think it is more effective in B&W... very nicely done!
