Turweston 06-07-2025, some black & white photography

I've often found that with the right subject and right conditions, black and white photography can give some nice results so with some stormy skies around I decided to try editing some of my Turweston photos in black and white, here are some of the results and there are several more in my flickr album : https://www.flickr.com/photos/125470545 ... 4654122978

Interesting trying something different.
I think black & white looks better with older period aircraft.
But, in your pictures, I enjoyed the ones with fine detail (rivets, raindrops etc).
I think they also worked where there was contrasting colour schemes.
The plain overall schemes seemed a touch bland black.

So, I think it is about the amount of detail visible. But that's my personal taste.
Be interesting to see how others feel.

Looks to have been a grand day out.

Pete.
