Default B&W with Color
Always trying new things in post processing, and this was something I always liked, and wanted to give it a try. Went to the park with my niece this past weekend, and this is the results of my attempt. The first one I think came out a lot better. Think I might have to dial the saturation down a little bit in the second photo.





And these two are just pictures that I absolutely loved. I thought they would be better in b&w than color.





Hope you enjoy.

Thanks TLS and Sheriff.

It was the first time I did a "photoshoot" with anyone, and I'm very pleased they came out the way they did, and my brother and his wife are extra pleased. (especially since I did it for free) The pictures have been the talk of the family, and people have since asked if I could capture the magic with their kids. So it's opening a whole new aspect for me.

I totaly agree with you about toning down the sat on the second one. I really like the muted colors on B&W. Beautiful girl, you caught some good moments.
