Actually, I usually do my B/W conversions by colorizing them to give a slightly warm tone. Just desaturating seems to look too blue to me. This was shot in Eureka Springs.

Thanks Tammy, Colette, Noel, and Jenny! I appreciate your comments very much :-) #1733129Marsha S. Smith August 22, 2005
Looks like it could have been taken 50 years ago. Love that warm tone! #1752746Roger Bernabo August 23, 2005
I really like this; ala Meschasized for true viewing. I like your idea of warming up the image; something I think mine have lacked. #1755575Carla Metzler August 23, 2005

Thanks Marsha, Roger, Carla, and Joyce. I would actually shoot more in E.S. if it didn't involve so much mountain climbing :-) #1757714Sandra Freyler September 29, 2005
