This is a picture I took last weekend in Boston downtown. The pond was still empty, and the photo in color did not look all that interesting, but when I converted it to black and white all of a sudden I thought it looked rather nice!
This is my contribution to Scenic Photos and Shadows

the monochrome seems to bring out the shadows more - nice shot - i really like Boston as a city
The old church keeps its classic style as the modern urban skyscape sprouts up around it. Steeples and shadows are a fine combination, keeping the Hub (where we are going for wedding in June) the classic microcosm of old and new!
Lovely - I haven't yet been to Boston ... but it has just moved up the list of places to visit!
I love all the shapes in this photo.
I love Boston! Haven't been there in years but have good memories! And I love your shadow shot! The monochrome really highlights the shadows! Hope you have a great weekend!

Perfect for black and white. I can imagine all the photo ops in that city... How I would love to visit that city!
Funny how removing the color gives it depth and a sense of history...cool shot in B&W.
You're right - sometimes black and white is so much better than colour. The trees in your shot are beautiful, so delicate.
wonderful in B&W!
I so agree! I feel the need to do that from time to time. We don't have live our lives so saturated, do we? Beautiful shot.
Looks great in black and white - great shadows!
oh how I love Boston
this is a lovely shot
This is a great shot of shade in the shadows... the photo almost looks vintage too... Nice!
I find that happens too ! You change it to B&W and it can look amazing .. a totally different character to the picture : )
A very pretty monochrome shot. Love the simplicity of B&W.
Great job.
Happy SS
