You can definitely count me among those who are not-so-much b/w fans - rarely take them, and rarely see photos I think are at their best without color. 

However, I am up for a challenge, so here are a few attempts:

   guitar                   weeds                     clouds

What, you ask, does that have to do with the title??  This last one is one I thought begged to be in b/w.  It is a sculpture at the United Nations in NYC.

    Good shots...you did very good.

    The sculpture reminds me of what Superman used to do to guns.

  • Wonderful shots, loved weeds.  The scuplture looks good in B/W.  (Chef stole my comment about Superman.)

    Very nice photos. The sculpture is perfect in B/W and the positioning is very impactful. I like the clouds, just wish the wires weren't in it.

    Pretty nice shots! The clouds are spiffy, I didn't even notice the wires until Angie said about them. XD

  • Love the guitar.  The tones in the wood are beautiful and make a very interesting design... might be neat to just photograph that and leave the strings out of the shot.  I think you do b&w very well and shouldn't be so quick not to experiment with it.

    I agree with emf about the guitar, love the texture the b&w brings out.  The sculpture is my second fav.  Nice b&w's   :o)

  • That sculpture looks great in b/w and what a reminder about Superman....

    would like to compare the grain of the guitar in b/w and color...
