As much as I enjoy color photography, the best way to rescue a mediocre picture is by changing it to black and white.
There was nothing pretty about this cold day last March but I really appreciated these structures that are close together in the Morgan County, Ohio countryside.

I think black and white saved the day!
Love these photos!!
Thank you! I’m glad!!
Those are some cracking photo’s Brandi!
I often do the same if I’m somewhere and the lights, or at least the colours, have been flat – often it’s the difference between getting something usable or not. Plus, it looks cool too with the right subject.
Hey Stuart! How are you? I’m glad I’m not the only one that uses it as a tool that way. I generally enjoy black and white photos anyway but it’s especially nice when black and white saves the day!
Hi Brandi! I’m fine thanks – just looking forward to getting out of limbo!
Far from it, it’s a really useful thing to be able to do when you’re somewhere and need a photo – I’ve also been known to turn the camera’s sepia setting on quite often too!
I’m trying to just enjoy my present circumstances but I really miss going places! And agreed. Sepia is nice too!
Me too – it’s great to get out and about but I’m looking forward to actually being able to go to places!
I fear that it’s going to be a long time for us. Everyone here is becoming impatient and careless so a second wave will likely hit. 🙁
I hope not – it would be awful to go through all this again!
Here’s hoping!
