Plant scapes in Black and White Nik Silver Efex pro 2


Saturday I led a group of photographers at the Howard Rawlings Conservatory, in Baltimore, on a photo workshop sponsored by Capital Photography Center. I was helping participants make compositions, use their cameras and understand more about photography. Afterward I made a few images in the Palm Room. The textures of the trunks and the fans on the palms were wonderful and the light was soft so I had to take the opportunity to at least go home with a few shots. While processing I decided to use a square format and convert the images to monochrome. I applied a border which emulates emulsion from the Perfect Photo Suite by On One. (RE: The border, I think iPhone photography is influencing my Big Camera Vision)
