Description

I've been playing a little with B&W conversions of some of my photos. I like the way that some of these look up on the wall. This is one. I've posted the color image of this one on here before. Pushed it a bit in Topaz before B&W conversion.

Exif: F Number: 11, Exposure Bias Value: 0.00, ExposureTime: 1/13 seconds, Flash: did not fire, compulsory flash mode, ISO: 100, White balance: Manual white balance, FocalLength: 100.00 mm, Model: Canon EOS DIGITAL REBEL XTi
