Golf in Black and White

Last friday two of my friends invited me and some other friends to play some golf. Of course I brought my camera (sigma dp2x). I really enjoyed being there with my friends, and playing the game. Here are a couple of shots from that day. I hope you enjoy them.

These are great photos. I like the 3rd most! Really nice Black/White conversion.

Hi Florian,

Thanks! No 3 was my favorite too.

As for the the black and white conversion. All the photo's were exposed to the right (it was a gray day). In SPP I choose the monochrome white balance option. Afterward I applied a s-curve in Gimp, with its mid-point on the left side of the histogram. This is the basic process, for each photo I varied slightly contrast/fill light.

Re: Golf in Black and White

thanks for the little howto! I tested with Gimp on a few photos and now, it's well noted!
