One Four Challenge: Autumn Scene – Variation 4
This is week 4 of this month’s One Four series. For this variation, I converted to B&W, but retained the color in the sky. The component colors of the B&W image were adjusted to retain the detail in the trees and bring out the textures further. The basis for this variation was variation 2; here…
