Theme: LANDSCAPES
Thank you to @mweich for Guest Judging this week's Contest!
and a BIG THANK YOU to everyone that participated!
========================================
This was a real treat to judge, thank you everyone for your wonderful submissions!
I know I have a few new photographers to follow and I hope you take a look at the profiles of the photographers featured here. There were more great photos that I was unable to include so please search for the #bwphotocontest tag as well! There were so many different and beautiful interpretations of "Landscape"!
Friendly advice: BW photography is not merely desaturated colour photography, the darkest black should be black and brightest white should be white; a grey mess is rather uninteresting, even if in colour that image is mind-blowing. On the opposite, a bland colour photo can be transformed into a work of art when rendered in black and white! Get out your photo-editing software and experiment!
"Landscapes" was the theme for this week's bwphotocontest as such the nice cat and portraits were not considered (though they were very nice!).
Here are my subjective choices for 7 honourable mentions and 3rd, 2nd and 1st places!

Converting a color photo into B&W is an art!!
