Renzo, you remind me of myself. I think we're both better in black-and-white. Yet, "Secrets" grows on me; I like the subtlety of the color. #3207

Dough, thanks!
In priciple I do prefer black and white photo but it is only a month I have a digital camera and I try to learn how to get the most of it. I don 't know even if it is possible to take B/W photo with a digital camera (how ignorant). However thanks again for your comments. #5070

Renzo, if you want B&W from a digital color image, do the conversion in the imaging program. It will call it "grayscale". If you have Photoshop, let me know; there a couple of cool tricks to getting a better grayscale.

Hi Dough,
thanks for the suggestion. Unfortunately I don't have PhotoShop, but CompuPic. It has the "grayscale" but I think has no tricks. I will see the outcome of turning color to B&W.

I tried to convert an original color to BW. Here is the result. What do you think? #5076

Unavailable EXIF: If there is no other information but 'Unavailable' in the EXIF (meaning no EXIF data exists with the photo), the 'Unavailable' blurb is not displayed. If there is any info, it shows. Many photos have the EXIF stripped out when people modify the image and resave it, before uploading.
