Black and White Photography
(edited)

The first time being at the coast and seeing surfers here in Oregon in March 2025. I thought this looked best as a black and white. It was really bright out. There was more I could have probably done with the whites. I have been learning and now can adjust better.

The learning curve is real but you already have a great eye for the moment, really compelling shot Janie.🤙

Thank you April! I appreciate that!

Still can, with Lightroom. Nice thing about it is non-destructive editing. I also like to use the Snapshot feature to save different versions, and then compare them head-to-head.

Thank you Chris. At the time I was learning some new things with lightroom. The more I used it the more I am getting comfortable with it 😉 I still like to use some of the features from photoshop. Old habits die hard lol.

Was this taken with a tilt-shift lens?

No it wasn't. Just a slight blur in foreground. I was on the cliffs and it was far away. Used my 300mm lens.
