I may not take another image for intentional B&amp;W treatment for months. \ud83d\ude42 It happened yesterday while walking the trail at the Rachel Carson National Wildlife Refuge in Wells, Maine. These are &#8220;extreme HDR&#8221; images from the Sony RX10iv&#8230;taken with HDR set to a +\/- 6 EV difference. I applied 1930s B&amp;W film filters in Polarr and then tweaked the results to taste with the &#8220;light&#8221; controls. Borders were added in PhotoShop Express. And the panel was assembled in FrameMagic. I find the B&amp;W images only really pop when displayed on a black background&#8230;hence the borders&#8230;but even the panel looks best in full screen mode with a dark background.<\/p>\n<div class=\"sharedaddy sd-sharing-enabled\"><div class=\"robots-nocontent sd-block sd-social sd-social-icon-text sd-sharing\"><h3 class=\"sd-title\">Share this:<\/h3><div class=\"sd-content\"><ul><li class=\"share-twitter\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-shared=\"sharing-twitter-11102\" class=\"share-twitter sd-button share-icon\" href=\"https:\/\/psnp.info\/p4td_\/?p=11102&amp;share=twitter\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Click to share on Twitter\"><span>Twitter<\/span><\/a><\/li><li class=\"share-facebook\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-shared=\"sharing-facebook-11102\" class=\"share-facebook sd-button share-icon\" href=\"https:\/\/psnp.info\/p4td_\/?p=11102&amp;share=facebook\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Click to share on Facebook\"><span>Facebook<\/span><\/a><\/li><li class=\"share-email\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-shared=\"\" class=\"share-email sd-button share-icon\" href=\"https:\/\/psnp.info\/p4td_\/?p=11102&amp;share=email\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Click to email this to a friend\"><span>Email<\/span><\/a><\/li><li class=\"share-end\"><\/li><\/ul><\/div><\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It does not happen often, but occasionally I will find myself seeing in Black and White&#8230;not literally, of course, but seeing the possibility of a Black and White image in the world of color.
