This week’s challenge is quite a challenge for me: I have never shot in black and white! Aaaaand I still haven’t. I don’t have time to try to figure out my phone’s settings, though I would like to sometime.
Instead, I used Google Photos editing to convert some of my previous photos into black and white by setting saturation to zero (and also playing with the contrast). This is also something I have never really done, and I was quite pleased with the results.
I took this photo recently at my mom’s house and thought the lighting and shadows really made it suited to black and white. I liked the sunny yellow of the flowers but this is also a cool way to see it.
I also thought my cat Juhani would be well suited for B&W. She is in fact mostly white, so I think this medium helps capture her various contours better.
You can find more black and white at the original Lens-Artist challenge, guest hosted this week by Anne at Slow Shutter Speed.

You did very well with your phone shots and desaturation! The flowers and your cat are perfect subjects for black and white conversions. Thanks for participating!

Your photo of Juhani is really wonderful! Most of us shoot in color and convert. Today’s software makes it quite easy vs the old days 😊

I am constantly amazed at all the things I can just do on my phone! And photo software, too. I learn new editing things all the time.
