I was recently contacted by a photographer who liked my photos on Facebook. He suggested I re-do some of them in B&W. I personally don't care for B&W, except in certain photographic content, but I am interested in adjusting color and light schemes to create interesting effects and dimensions in photos, and enhancing what already exists. Here's some of my first work (before and after):
Jack in the Window
Original
Jack in the Window

Adjusted
A much brighter, glowing Jack... with more of a multi-dimensional look.
Seagull on the Catalina Island Ferry
Original
Adjusted
This is a starker yet more defined image (in appearance) than the hazy original, the reduction of color and contrast gives a "sleek" feel to the photo.
Luna de Santa Fe
Original

AdjustedI liked the enhancement of the luminosity within the red/violet spectrum while still keeping a "realistic" look.
The Webmaster
Original
Adjusted
The darker green creates more of a contrast with the spider web and white paint.
