		| | I hate this...can't decide which of three to submit.  I had one all picked out and it's really nice and simple but then I went out today and got a few nice photos -- I was really hoping to catch something for heroes, but that seems like it's gonna be a really hard one for me anyway. |

		| | I know...I wish I could post one I took back in September.  Alas... I need to get out there and start actively participating instead of wishing I could post one I've already taken.

		| | I have a dumb question.  Are you allowed to convert a color photo to   B + W, or does it have to come that way out of the camera? (Sorry for my ingnorance, first B + W challenge.)  Thanks, Ray |

		| | it can be converted to b/w on the computer.  Some people, like myself, dont have the option of taking a b/w picture directly from the camera.

		| | Thanks for your help.  It's good news since I already converted a color shot to B+W and submitted it! :) |

		| | It's hard to decide.  I had one all picked out and submitted then I changed it.  Now I don't know if I should switch back or not...so I'm just leaving it.  "Indecision" haha |

		| | I went out and took about 50 different photographs for the B&W challenge and ended up submitting the first picture I took. It̢۪s a different type of picture than I usually take but I really like it, so I hope it does well.

		| | This was my entry, but I wimped out at the last moment, because I figured people wouldn't get it/would take offense to it.  Oh well.  What's ironic is that my current entry is the antithesis of this, exactly what I was satirizing.  Haha.

 My experience with DPC: different is no good :)
 
 I wish you luck though! I always like to try new things (and unfortunately, that is reflected in my score) :-p

 I know what you mean but i liked the shot and it had everything the challenge details wanted so I can just sit back and hope for the best.

 Go for it if you like it!
 
 Here's my outtake - - -
 
 
   
 I will be submitting a more serious image.  This one was a "different" one that i liked but I was pretty sure it would be voted down for various reasons. I also like my submission btw :)

 With my voting scale I would of classified it as meeting the challenge and a good photograph with means I would of scored it a 6 or 7. You can click on my voting scale to see how I vote.

		| | I can't decide either.  I like all of my shots, but don't feel any of them will do very well.. I waited until the last minute pretty much (today) to start shooting, as I've been busy, but I'm not feeling good today, so my options are pretty significantly narrowed.  I ended up with pictures that *I* like, but DPCers aren't going to dig.  Too bad I don't live in a city for some nice street candids; I have a feeling there are going to be some great ones of those :) |

		| | i have a photograph i like...but i feel it won't do well, but if i don't submit i'll feel like it could have done well, and with so many entries it probably won't..still have a couple of hours left to decide...grrr |
