Monochromatic Dreams

I was talking to a friend recently about black-n-white photography, and started to give some examples on how they could be interesting. While searching for pics from my own collection, i took my older colour images and desaturated them to present them again. And voila ! I start to see a different world..













Thanks Ajay, I learnt to see my own photos in a new colour.. :)

Truly great works Arun !
I am too amateur to comment on technical details.
would you mind if I sketch one or two of them ?
To be honest, your products are more wonderful than the ones we saw at epsite, what do you say
:-) ? modesty isnt always fair enough !

Amazing work. I think a picture speaks more if it's in black and white. One of the images is my wallpaper :)

Armo..I think your sketch would look better than the original :) i wud like to see it if you really create one.

Ajay..I cannot agree more..these are the days when i am starting to dream in BnW too. I hope the dunes of the desert would provide interesting opportunities... !

pics look beautiful when their hues are desaturated...and so are ppl when the inward beauty is looked at, desaturating all the outward hues! :-)

Wonderful presentation and careful selection...cool..not all pics are apt for color and not all for black and white...the pics u selected all look beautiful

I think the pics need a bit more contrast, esp the flowers (again :-)) The last pic is good. Doesn't look like it was taken in colour and converted
