Simon, this was an enjoyable video. The way you talk your way thru the shot, is helpful. "Seeing in black & white" is quite fun. I love shooting B&W, but not every shot works in B&W. A break from color is fun. First time watching, now a subscriber. We'll continue watching "over your shoulder" from Olympic Nat'l Park, Port Angeles, WA., USA!

Hello, Simon. I can't make a choice.
All are strong black-and-white photos for me.
What one lacks a bit, you will find in the other.
They are really very good.
The post-processing is also very strong, everything is well-balanced and not too much.
A great piece of photography and post-processing, friend.
The second is very good, nice structure and the contrast is perfect.
The front is a bit less than the back, but that is because it is painted.
It must be said that you had the circumstances on your side, the sky is exceptionally strong in all the photos.
The photo of the ship is magnificent, friend. That should be hung on a wall, it is a large format. This is really a gem.
It is as I said in the beginning, I can't really make a choice in terms of quality.
Sailing has always fascinated me, so that is why I tend to lean towards the photo of the ship.
But from a photographic point of view, they are all the same.
This is a lesson in delivering high-quality black-and-white photography, Simon. Thanks for this video, mate.

Stunning black and whites. Some really incredible shots in there. Of the boat shots, I think I liked the first one (7:15) the best. Stellar composition and subject. All three are really good, as well as some of the others.

Aujourd'hui, la couleur, c'est agréable avec des effets colorés et autre, mais rien ne vaut le noir et blanc pour l'ambiance, c'est bien les nuages, cela meuble le ciel, et accentuent l'effet de la photo.

Great photos do you use long exposure and what’s your go to lens ?

[DarktableLandscapes]

Ah summer in Scotland. Net on your head for the midges, gaiters on your legs for the ticks, boiling hot one minute, chucking it down the next... That's why I wait for autumn 😄 Beautiful shots and nice and punchy!

I really like the images but looking at them on my iPad, they seem to be very high contrast. Is this a conscious thing done by you or is it my iPad?

[GingerCaptures]

Nice one Simon, really enjoyed that, the ship certainly worked in B&W but loved the 3rd image of the Tree and barn framed 👍🏻

[robinlevin]

Thanks Simon for your video. Always motivating to see other photographer’s adventures. I shoot mainly B&W and have gone back to film (FP4+).

Hi Simon. It's great to see an all black and white video. When I take some shots I always try to change the photos to black and white. Sometimes they work better than the colour ones. Also I like all 3 of the boat shots.

[malcolm.thomson]

Simon I really enjoyed the video I wish I had a black and white head to put on like yours all of the shots were stunning, as for the shots of the ship I can’t decide maybe the one framed by the trees but the jury is still out. Thanks again for the video.

Hi, really enjoyed your black and white photographs. I loved the contrasts and the details that show up so well in this medium. I always feel that black and white photography captures the essence, the soul of the subject. Thank you for sharing.

[gruagach]

The first image for me. I've been meaning to shoot it for a few years but just never been able to stop. The tall ship is still there but not photogenic from the FW side.

[wilbmoore]

Really amazing work, Simon. I love your approach to the subject matter.

[gregscott]

Curious as to what editing program you use?

[michaellux]

Gr8 video, Gr8 pictures... thank you so much. 👍

[JohnMcKennaPhotography]

some cracking images Simon! Black & White definitely suits those subjects!

[simonlawphotography]

Love black and white and the moody start to the video. Some really nice textures and who knew a tin shed could look interesting :)

Brijant black and white work, Simon
You did an awesome job, man.
Antoine.

[lensman]

This is good photography but the digital files have been overprocessed a touch. Sometimes less is more.
