Over the last week or so I've been thinking about black and white photography and have got a couple ideas of what I want to try...with no idea on how to make what I want to do actually happen. That rarely stops me from having a go however so I thought I'd twiddle some knobs and dials on the camera in manual mode and see what happened; a voyage of discovery so to speak. I decided to take a stab at some black and white photos of a couple of my watches.
Below are a few shots I thought were ok, many were not, and that I felt would be suitable to share. I figure I'll explain what I did here with the camera so that all you technical...ah bugger it, I have no bloody idea what I did, I simply twiddled some knobs and dials in manual mode and pressed the shutter-release button.








I used my lightbox with the white background for these shots and changed the colour-tone of the LED light-ring in the top of the lightbox a little, warmed it up and cooled it down, and as I knob-twiddled I hoped I was capturing something worth looking at. I'm not sure I did, but the above shots are some of the resulting images regardless of being good or bad.
Feel free to comment if you'd like to and if not, and you're actually reading this, *thanks for coming by and taking a look.
