CRANE

This is how it came out of the camera - and is how I like it best.

This is the same photo in black and white.
In some ways, it doesn't look much different but I miss the blue-ish sheen.

When changing a photo from a grey day into black and white
 I often like to go for shapes rather than tones.
Here is the same photo with the brightness and contrast adjusted. Pretty bold, eh?

SKELETON AND HOISTS

This is a wildly frustrating photo because the angle is irritatingly just-out. If I could I'd re-take it but this building site is too far from my home to return to it easily so I'm making do with this photo even if it is a bit annoying. It's an 'if-only' image.

I like the presence of the on staircase.
