Borer 2015 Saline Scarecrow Contest: The Tin Man

How to Decide When a Digital Photograph Should be Presented in Black and White

September 18, 2017
With the growing sophistication of Instagram and iPhone filters, photographers of all skill levels are chosing to post more of their images in black and white (B&W) on social media. Add to that the upcoming sixth annual Saline Scarecrow Contest scheduled to run next month and you have a past entry that nicely supports this discussion.
