I♥Faces: Week 7
Are you getting tired of my posts yet? I know, I've been a bad blogger lately with only photo entries to I♥Faces and Fix-it Fridays. But I'm enjoying this and its my only way to blog right now. Anyway, if you're into photography I♥Faces is a great way to check out techniques, show off your own talent, and find others who enjoy the art of photography as well. I'm like most parents with a database of photos, but it has just been recently that I've taken it seriously. Armed with better tools (camera, photo editing software, etc), photography has reached a new level for me.
Well, enough rambling. This week's theme is B&W. Okay, so you can take any photo and convert it to black and white, right? Well, I think there are some photos that are screaming to be black and white and others that abhor it. Maybe it's just me, but I think there are just some pictures that shouldn't be converted. Well, Tristan is my model yet again. When am I just going to find that perfect picture of my sweet baby girl that fits the theme just right? And, when am I going to find a picture that I've taken with my new camera? All of my entries thus far have been with an old Canon Powershot - even my entries below.

That little hat on your son really does give a period air to the image that matches a B&W conversion. (And I agree with your assessment...B&W is not for all pictures...sometimes you have to "try it on" to see it doesn't fit.) And my eyes went to your husband's expression, too. He seems thoughtful, which adds interest to the picture.
Love the "vintage" look of the first and how very special the second photo is! Great job!
Awww, I also like the old-fashioned feeling of the first shot, but the second is so great because of the intensity of your husband's eyes. Good choices!
I agree, black and white can be a tricky thing. You did a great job with it! Very nice. :)
I LOVE that first photo... Great entries! Good luck! :)
Both are fantastic entries! I love your adult entry, so sweet of them together.
Is he reaching out to grab hold of something or holding something at bay! Such a cute pic.
He is such a beautiful baby! How couuld you not photograph him every instant : ). I love his hat. I love the character in the picture. I think you are so right about some pictures being perfect black and white pictures and others...not so much! Love your entries!
very, very nice!
wonderful shots!
Oh my goodness, we could never get sick of your photo posts!!! I love the B/W ones!
Both are really great, but I especially love your adult entry!
Both photos are great, but I really like the slight angle in the adult entry. Your son is a cutie!
