Old boat, Timber Point, Rachel Carson NWR, Biddeford Pool, Maine<\/p><\/div>\n

I rarely post black and white images. I see in color. I think in color. My world is a world of color. When people post comparison shots…color and black and white of the same scene and ask “which is better?…I always pick the color shot. Still…this aging boat out behind the old boat house on Timber Point (Rachel Carson National Wildlife Refuge) just did not work as well as I had hoped in color…so I experimented with the b&w filters in Polarr to see if I could bring out the bones of the image. I wish I could say I saw this image in the boat when I took the shot…but I did not. It is a happy, and totally unforseen, result. But I love it! It captures more than I saw…more than I imagined. It totally catches the boat in all its decaying glory. It is unashamedly artsy. And that is good, at least on occasion. <\/p>\n

Sony Rx10iii in-camera HDR at 43mm equivalent. 6 stop difference at -1 EV to hold the highlights and fill the shadows. Processed as a color image in Polarr using my standard HDR filter plus some shadow control. Converted to B&W using a Polarr filter. Further edited for highlight control at the sunny left end of the boat. <\/p>\n
