Winner // August 2009 // pw4

Following a very close vote with solid competition, the winner of the August 2009 photo contest "black & white" is pw4.

Nicely done!

What a close contest! I really liked image 7 (the cabriolet) - a great classic-style B&W shot.
FYI this was my first attempt at a B&W HDR photo - it stopped everything turning into a silhouette.

I voted for 7 too (accidentally, mine was 6).

I was trying something different and trying to make the pic as colourful as possible, but I couldn't think of the right background. I didn't seem to be that appreciated.

Was it the two rear vision mirrors? I thought that was a clever idea, and I liked the twist of putting a lot of colour into a B&W topic. Can I say, as one who regularly gets no votes at all (not even my own!), don't be discouraged! With everyone having just one vote each, we can all only say which one we like best - it doesn't mean the others aren't good or aren't liked. If we had placings or points, it would give quite a different view.

I'm not discouraged, I've had 3 wins in the last year, and a few second places, so I'm doing something right. I've also had a few clunkers, but I thought this one might have done better.
