This photograph of a railroad crossing was taken
during a snowstorm. The color was removed to produce a black and white
image.
Details: Canon
EOS 10D digital camera with a Tamron 28-75 mm zoom lens. Settings were
1/90 second, f16.
The Photoshop Elements "Glowing Edges" filter
was used to produce the high contrast image shown above. It is noted
that this filter produced an image that was opposite (negative) with
respect to the original photograph.
The image had to then be
inverted to produce the black image and white background characteristics tones of a
daylight photo.
