RE: B+W Street Photography // SATX
Hi, first of all great photos; the composition of the first one is especially nice. I'd be interested to know what editing suite you used to convert the photos into black and white, or perhaps you did it in camera. If you let me know I should be able to provide you with some tips that I've found useful in my own work. Cheers for now, upvoted : )
I use Lightroom to edit, but I used the B&W setting in my camera to create these!
That's great, I primarily use Lightroom too. You may already be aware but there's a free set of plugins for Lightroom called the "Nik Collection", I'll put a link to it here.

This a great set of plugins that I believe used to cost around $150 before Google acquired them and distributed them for free. Anyway, there's one plugin included specific to black and white photography, Silver Efex Pro. This is a very powerful tool that, when used in conjunction with Lightroom, can produce some really stunning results. You may already have been aware of all of this, but I thought I'd tell you anyway, I may do a Lightroom/Silver Efex tutorial post in the future. Cheers again, and keep up the good work.
No I wasn't aware! I'll check it out for sure, thanks for the tip!
No problem, let me know if you have any questions about using it with Lightroom, happy editing.
