Now they are stunning,

what do you do to convert to black & white? If yo don't mind me asking

erick · 23-06-2006, 11:09

thank you Gary

I am using a plugin in photoshop CS2 : theimagingfactory
but I build theconversion step by spep, generally red chanel is wonderfull for the sky, and green chanel for trees, yellow channel is a good compromise

after that i darken or lighten every part slowly

Excellent shots !!! Gotta love a decent Mono like those

Brilliant Black & Whites. Must look into that plugin. Anybody else use it ?

erick · 23-06-2006, 16:59

I have tried a few plugin I find that one the most usefull and simple to use
it's a super channel mixer

I've seen the FM one in action. They had same function where whichever Channel you change, it automatically compensate the others to ensure total of 100%. Is it something similar ?

I use it aswell and I'm very happy with the results, very easy to use it is too

If you check my Sea Front thread there's 3 examples of it use... unfortunately the pics arn't a patch on Erick's fine work

I have been looking at your work recently Erick and I have finally worked out what it is that makes me really like the majority of your landscapes, Its the way you capture the vastness of the scenes without always needing something in the forground to give the scale to the shot.

Both these are great examples of that, both show the vastness and yet have very little to give any true indication of the scale. Great work!

Out of the two, I personally prefer the second shot but they are both excellent
