Black and white pictures are scarce in Barcelona Photoblog as many of you know. There are a few exceptions though. Take the case of this flute player, this flutist girl I captured during last Tres Tombs parade at Sant Andreu quarter. I loved the original image but sometimes I get so carried away by the light that I end up choosing the bw option. I know I am not good at black and white photography but you never know if you don't explore other fields. Not that there's anything special in the action or the subject but I do like the way she spots the camera as she walks and gives me this wary look.

Muito bela... a foto e a tocadora de flauta!
ReplyDeleteHermosa imagen, inspira relajación… paz. Felicidades
ReplyDeleteexcelente foto, bom trabalho fotografico.
ReplyDeleteA very beautiful photograph. Perfect DOF, interesting subject and great gleam on the flute.
ReplyDeleteYou can find good B&W work on some CDPBs. I particularly like Alejandro in Buenos Aries and iBlowfish in Cleveland (he has a few in color). I will have a B&W post tomorrow.
Brilliant photo.
ReplyDeleteDid you do post processing on it to add extra blur to the background?
Thanks my friends.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the suggestions Strangetastes.
Jordan, I did add extra blur. People were too close for me to get that strong blur with my lens but I definitely didn't want the background to deviate the visitor' eye so I added a blur effect.
