I don't know whether to score this lower because I can see color.. or higher because it's a unique view of the challenge..

i guess you forgot to take out all the color? too bad, because this would be a great image. maybe you'll revisit it without the constraints of basic editing?

Good eye! The litter is a bummer but the comp is good.

I bet a lot of people are saying this doesn't meet the challenge, but don't you listen! Great composition and very original - don't care much for the title, though.

Is this in colour? ANyway, good ideas, nice shot.

Nice idea, but the image isn't BW. You could also work on execution, as the topmost pointer is too far on the edge to work well together witht the lower one.

Definitely some color going on here. But I guess you knew that.

Is it, though? Appears rather gray to me. Traffic jams are like bad movies; just when you think they're over.

If you pay attention to the habits of rabbits,
you'll find if you mind them, they don't look behind them
They chew until blue in the face and then more
And bored you seek solace in grommit and wallace.

it's not really black and white

Interesting take on the challenge...fitting and more difficult that just desaturating a photo.

Well, I can see red, yellow, blue and green also. Not to be mean or sound superior. I don't understand why someone would enter a color picture into a b/w challenge. It's like doing the job half way. It does have some strong lines and interesting texture.

Not true black and white. There are still color components in this photo. Would have been better if you converted to greyscale.

I understand what you are getting at, but don't know if the people of DPC will like it.

...and blue

Black and white...and blue? This almost conforms to the rules of this challenge.

In combination with a lackluster composition, I cannot rate this very highly. Sorry.

It doesn't look very black and white to me.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Gr8 knew that someone would submit a color photo but the challenge is Black and White 2 so I think ill give it a 10
  Photographer found comment helpful.
11/18/2004 04:21:44 AM
I see blue
  Photographer found comment helpful.
11/18/2004 04:14:56 AM
maybe my eyes are playing a trick on me after looking at so many b&w pictures, but is there blue in this photograph?
  Photographer found comment helpful.

I like this pattern of lines on the road from this angle. This shot would still look great in grey scale, which I think the contest was asking for.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

I see a lot of blues and a brown leaf. Sorry, but this doesn't meet the challenge in my eyes.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
11/17/2004 11:38:52 AM
blask and white and blue or is it perhaps just my eyes or computer?
  Photographer found comment helpful.
11/17/2004 11:16:58 AM
Not black and white enough. I understand what you were going for, but the road isn't completely black. a simple conversion to grayscale on photoshop or your digital editting program would greatly improve the photo. It still meets the challenge, but not to what was expected.

11/17/2004 02:59:21 AM
im giving this a low score because this is not 'black and white photography'
  Photographer found comment helpful.
11/16/2004 10:33:22 PM
It looks like this shot wasn't desaturated, as I can still make out some color in it.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
11/16/2004 08:00:24 PM
Not B&W.
