Where are you finding all these locks? :D

Anyway, a quick one from me... My garden shed lock (even though there is nothing of value in there.):

Haha...Thank you Matt, for this tough one :)

I just shot a couple. I will process and post them later today. I am going to keep my eye out for more. ;)

Mark; that is interesting; i am eager to see your findings; regards :)

Hi Mark. I agree with you but I'm just learning Silver Efex Pro2 and reading a book about B&W images and conversions. So, I think it is better to convert it after getting some experience rather than doing it now. I will be uploading some B&W images one after another as my learning practise and I'm certain to upload this one in B&W too when the time comes (It won't take a long time).

If you could wait for a short time, you will see it. Promise !

Hi Mark. I'm reading 'The Complete Guide To Black and White Digital Photography' by Michael Freeman. I have come to the post processing part in the book recently. I'm also reading a book about Nik Collection which is 'Plug In With Nik' by John Batdorrf. It tells how to use each part of the software with examples and there is a section about Sillver Efex Pro 2 for B&W conversions for 40 pages. I think I will be doing B&W conversions more consciously after finishing to read those.

Thank you very much James :)

Binnur, thank you so much for your kind remarks
Regards :)

Here is what I found. I went back and re shot the first one under a cloudy sky.:Dhttp://i59.tinypic.com/cp1jo.jpg

I am not really happy with the second one. It seems sort of flat?:(

Hi Nandakumar,

Interesting thread. I've marked a helpful/like for my favourite images, which are mostly the locks on the doors. I've never photographed a lock before but I will keep an eye out for one to photograph and post.
