It's been awhile, so here goes.

I rarely shot jpeg, so I decided to do it. I started off shooting black and white. Here's one result.



I really like the out of camera black and white from my Olympus. This image I used Tonality for the Ilford SFX 400 emulation.

The grass is green and the sky is blue, and that is what is expected. In black and white you play with light, dark, and form.
