16 photo etudes in color & black and white

How to successfully divide photos into color and black and white? Here are my next exercises in this matter. I still adhere to the general considerations that determine the presence and absence of beautiful color for color photos, and the presence of a pleasant contrast and the ratio of lights and shadows, whimsical texture - in the case of monochrome pictures. Night photos, photos taken in winter untie your hands and give opportunities for endless experiments that do not get boring at all. The main rule remains "Until you try - you will not know for sure." So I try, try ... and publish. It's good that there is a community specifically for this topic.

Firstly go a few pics from the last winter.

Как успешно поделить фотографии на цветные и черно-белые? Перед вами мои очередные упражнения в этом вопросе. По-прежнему я придерживаюсь общих соображений, что определяет наличие и отсутствие красивого цвета для цветных фото, и наличие приятного контраста и соотношения светов и теней, прихотливой фактуры - в случае с монохромными картинками. Ночные фото, фото снятые зимой развязывают руки и дают возможности для бесконечных экспериментов, которые ничуть не надоедают. Главным правилом же остается "Пока ты не попробуешь - ты не узнаешь точно". Поэтому я пробую, пробую... и публикую. Хорошо, что есть сообщество специально для данной темы.

I must admit I like the ones without the snow... I moved to California to avoid it! lol

I love the summer pictures with all the kids outdoors having fun. That time of year is coming to end an end for you now isn't it? When does it start to get wintry there?

Hey! Nice photo comparison post. I like this kind of comparison between bnw & colored photo because it encouraged me to look deeply at the photos and analyze too.

I noticed that every bnw conversions you made are good with nice contrasts as well.

Please post more of these in the future 😅

Вот эта сценка в черно-белом варианте очень стремно выглядит, как криминальная хроника.

Хо, хо! я понял 😂 но тем не менее это не кровь была, а краска 🙂
Цветная мне тоже больше понравилась
