B&W Photo Contest- Travel: A gargoyle’s view of Paris
Travel is the current theme of @daveks’ weekly black and white photo contest, and my entry is a shot that I took from the top of Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris. The light colored buildings with dark roofs look good without color, but it was the weathered, worn texture of the gargoyle that really made me want to process this shot in black and white.
Canon PowerShot G12, f/4 at 1/640 sec. ISO 320
Crazy photo! I like it dark and the gargoyle is the "man" haha Great work! :)
Ha ha. Yes, he is definitely the man. It's like he owns the city in this shot. Thanks!
Ehww!!! Frightening. Looks like a demon surveying the city for a prey.
Nice picture with a good story line. You got my upvote.
Thanks! The gargoyle does look a lot scarier in high contrast black and white. In the color version he is a dull grey, and definitely not as menacing.
Wow! So cool!
Thanks!
Simply wonderful
Thank you!
Very cool shot :D
Thank you! It's easy to get good shots in Paris.
Ooooohhh, I love this! The gargoyle in that pose, seen from this angle, viewing the city - in B&W! You're right.... the B&W does it for this pic!
Thanks! I like his pose too. Pretty impressive that he has been holding it for nearly 900 years.
He never gets tired... lol
Rad shot. Like out of a movie.
Thank you! A scary movie at that.
