Black and White

[Edalisse]

I used the dodge and burn tools on the black and white to bring out the highlights of her blonde hair. I think the black and white seems more dramatic. Hope y'all like it.:)

That looks really nice, Edalisse. Sort of a high key effect....

Benny,
PS: I will see about if I can make a new action download for that B&W work. My previous solution was too heavy...

Looks really great. I love the end result too!

Nice job on the black and white. When I burn and dodge, it usually looks too heavy handed. Great conversion.

Very nice, looks so light and not heavy.
