Castle in black and white

[tommykjensen]

Inspired by this thread (http://photography-on-the.net/forum/showthread.php?t=37163&highlight=) I went and bought the black and white plugin from Fred Miranda and applied it to the image from my topc Replacing sky (http://photography-on-the.net/forum/showthread.php?t=35293&highlight=). Beside the fact that the image still need a little work on the edge between the sky and castle / trees what do You think of this image in blak and white?

I think I like this better than the colored version.

Thanks for the shot, looks great to me. Love the old time horror movie atmosphere.

Try to increase mid-tone contrast.m The sky could be much more striking, and the castle would stand out much nore.

The sky seems to dominate this photo rather than add to it. Maybe toning down the sky would help.

If you can repeat the same shot, do it with a polarizer. Or replace the sky with sky shot with a polarizer or IR perhaps, get really white clouds and really dark sky.
