Trust

If you’re wondering why Quinn’s in the box, it’s because we’re working on stuff under the back deck, but there’s all this glass around so we don’t want him crawling in it. I dropped him in this planter, looked down, and started to play with the dirt; kids are awesome!

This is one of those shots that could easily be Black and White – but then I had a half cut CTO gel over my flash and that would really have defeated the purpose of doing that right?

Sometimes I really don’t know when to do a B&W conversion, sometimes I do because it saves a bad photo (digital noise is “acceptable” when it’s in black and white) – and then there are so many options, plus those plug-ins that just do it all for you! It’s a complicated mess that, tonight, I’ll wash my hands of.

Edit: This just in, I’ll be leading Scott Kelby’s Ottawa branch of the WordWide Photowalk on July 18th, there are only 50 spots available so sign up here: www.worldwidephotowalk.com
