Fireworks - B&W version

Hi everyone, I've started a new folder where I will gather all my

black and white pictures. Some of them are "original" b&w, in the

sense that a colour version does not exist. Most of them will be b&w

conversion of already posted pictures.

Your comments and critiques are as always highly appreciated, thanks

in advance for your time.

Paolo

Thanks all for your comments, I appreciate that.

Adi, sorry, I forgot to add the techs to the post. Yes, this is a multiple exposure - or composite as you wish - of 5 shots of 15" @f11 each. I did that just to be able to record a larger number of bolts than what I would have got with only one exposure.

Rgds,

Paolo

Ciao Paolo!! spesso in questo genere di foto trovo che il bn sia più che appropriato, ma non è il tuo caso... la versione a colori per me resta un gradino sopra!!!

complimenti comunque per la cattura e il tuo talento!!

I like . . . most of your images, . . . . but this, the b/w and color version is a copy and past image and done very poorly. You have a very visible separation on the horizon, where you inserted the sky, and the lightning is not proportional of the general image scale, during the 5 or 6 lightning has enough time for the clouds to move, it is not possible to get a sharp clouds during 5 lightning time. The lightning strike not natural aether. It is not a put down comment, it is to warn and help you, next time observe nature more carefully to copy it. Good idea, I would re edit the image to make more believable. I believe, with a "nice" "fantastic" comments, I wouldn't help you at all.

Cheers; Bela

Molto bella.
