In the same picture series as for the previous posts, some of the shots were not really convincing on the colour side of things… But for a few of them that showed nice geometrical patterns, I decided that I would try to convert them into black and white.

The first results of the convertion are the following:

A roof at Saint-Malo

A beam from the past

Technically, nothing impressive is involved :

• a mix between Red/Green/Blue chanels performed from the RAW file (with UFRaw)
• some tweaking on the contrast as well
• small sharpness enhancement
• a quick framing

Of course there is much more information about this on a MeetTheGimp podcast.
