Shadows: Graveyard

Graveyard

November 21, 2005

Location:		St. Mary's Episcopal Church Cemetery, Baltimore, MD
Camera:		Canon PowerShot Pro1
EXIF:		8 sec, F/3.2, 12 mm, ISO-50
Notes:		Playing around with the Channel Mixer I found that the conversion to black and white that I like the best used the blue channel exclusively, but it came at the expense of lots and lots of noise. Well, um, let's just call it grain and consider it a special effect. :) I do actually kind of like it. But what do you think, does it overwhelm the composition?

It doesn't overwhelm the composition, but I do find it kind of distracting in the buildings roof and the sky just above it. Very little info in the blue channel, so it's always full of lots of noise.

I like it. It shows that you took the photo back in 1890. Nicely done.

I like the grain a lot. I was a little distracted by the brightness of the light in the window tops, but I can't complain because *I* wouldn't know how to fix it. ;) Good job!

I like the noise, it adds atmosphere. You should have posted it at Halloween!
