Don't abandon the color work. Your problem (not a problem at all) is the scene has been introduced to us as BW and the color is startling in comparison. Because it was a memorable shot in BW I was able to decide what shade of blue the sky was. I also had imagined the water color more greenish. That's the great thing about BW, we have to bring something of ourselves to images. I liken it to expecting a cola and taking a sip of iced tea. We expect one thing and are surprised when we receive something else. Not worse, different. Keep shooting and we will keep looking.

My polish born wife has taken me here on many occasions. I look forward to your next attempt. -

I am still startled by this type of HRD images. They almost demand a viewer's attention. They are a real challenge to our concepts of photography. I am interested to see how this technique stands up over time and development.

Here I go swimming upstream again. I would like to see the scene without the fireworks if the illumination of the sky could be achieved without them. -

I really like this scene. I would encourage consideration for cropping or re-framing the bottom of the image to remove the clutter on the street/ curb edge.

It appears that the shot may be improved by zooming in on the Gothic window opening. The limestone, blue glass and bugle bell might make an interesting, if not abstract composition. I would also like to see much sharper focus, not PS sharpening, the glass kind. Interesting subject.

You have captured the moment well, technically the image is a wreck on many levels. There is no information about the camera used so I can only judge what is presented. It appears to be a self developed, self printed and scanned BW image. I would suggest that if the negative is clean, and well focused you should try and reprint this shot.

Very enjoyable image. I am never bored and constantly finding new things to notice. The composition, color, focus, POV are all first rate. -
This doesn't work for me a several levels. I think a photographer should respect the time investment their viewer makes by presenting work that is worthy of that expense. I am looking for images that reward, challenge, inspire even anger me, but I don't want to be bored. If this is too harsh I apologize in advance. -

The composition is first rate. I believe that during various time of the day this scene will be dramatically different due to the light and sky conditions. The foreground tree has hints of the last light of the day giving it a glow. I would enjoy seeing this is strong sunlight or maybe with the mountains and sky just a bit brighter. I hope this is your backyard,if not I wish it were mine. -

With the large number of pictures posted here of a single bright flower with some drops of water nicely focused it is great to see an example of how that assignment can be taken to a new level. This may have been processed in PS or completely in the camera, no matter its a great composition. Nice colors, balance, tone range and visual appeal.

To me, without all of the PS work you have captured a classic black and white photographers assignments. To be taken seriously as a Photographer we are all required to shoot a zebra in perfect focus, depth of field and full tonal range. You have that, I don't think the PS makes it stronger. -
You must have the last one! The last time in Sopot we made the day trip to the factory we were told they no longer make those. My wife is from the land of snow and Kielbasa.

What an opportunity, the background is great, the basket is a nice balance for the bird, the soft focus really holds back what could be a great shot. -
