You don't need to take a color version for that! Much more effort to desaturate everything but the eyes than it is to just add some color in!

See?

Yeah, I might do one of me if I can find a close-up that looks that good, let alone looks that good in black and white! Stupid pixely camera...

Magda, you lovely, lovely person! I am so very honored to be counted as one of your angels! It's so good that you are starting to feel much better and I'm so glad to see your smiling face (even a slightly tired smiling face). Love you hun! Sleep sweet!

Rose, I totally forgot you could do that! Definitely much easier. That looks really cool! *sigh* So very blue...
I'd love to see one of you with those beautiful eyes of yours!


Ok, I tried it on a close-up one (sorry if it's a bit too close), but I did it the hard way, with desaturation. My eyes look so strange! I swear I did nothing to mess with the color, they really do look like that! How odd...

That was the best use of a quote ever !! Absolutely wonderful !



Well I try from time to time


Morning PR! That one pic of you looking over your shoulder would be nice in B&W. You could redden the lips and color the eyes in and I bet it will look stunning!

*takes off his head and kicks it around the thread*

Edit: Roxy that pic is wonderful. I love the way your eyes turned out. Very breath taking!

Beeeautiful effect, Roxy!

Okay, I found some that worked (and also a better way to convert to B&W which kinda made me whap myself in the forehead)

Arguably the best shot of the blue eyes I've ever taken:



One of my favorite pictures in general (which also had visible eyes, rather than very dark or flashed-out eyes)



And since Kel suggested it:

{deleted because it looked dumb and was the wrong pic anyway}

Though I'm not sure it came out realistic; kind of a small image to try this with.

Is it just me or are the pics getting generally more artistic? Lot of fancy black and white close-ups. Not that theres anything wrong with that.
