Default BW Portraits

These are my two grandkids, Sarah Rose and David Nathaniel... I just decided to do a little PP on these images. What do you think? Thanks for looking.

All these baby shots make me want to go "borrow" my cousins for a photo shoot! Great work. I especially love the last one.

What do I think....I think you out did yourself this time, Fred. These portraits are beautiful. I have been working on B&W portraits of some of my students, so I can really appreciate the great lighting and clarity in the eyes in these shots! Wow!

Very nice Fred, it sure is fun having grand kids around isn't it. They both have such big eyes and the conversion helps to accentuate the fact. Nice job buddy.
