I am always a big fan of committing to study! You noticed some great compositions here, so job well done. Bob, one thing that I've found really interesting with shooting black and white is if you can set the screen to black and white while shooting in raw. The color compositions look great when doing so, and I find I'm always surprised by the results given I wasn't composing with color in mind.

That is an interesting observation. Usually when I set the screen to black and white, Lightroom uses the camera’s preview when import the images. Most of the time I just leave them like that. I will have to pay more attention to the color results. Thanks for that tip!!

This should be fascinating.

I personally struggle with B&W photography. I will also adopt Hanz’s suggestion.

I look forward to following your journey.

Great interior shot of Dinosaur BBQ! Haven’t been there in years! Always a great spot to eat after checking out the abandoned subway.
