Black and White

So I have been kind of absent here on Deviantart since the beginning of the year. I am taking a four week B&W digital course and I am half way through it.  I am enjoying it but anxious to get back to my digital photo manipulations. I am not much of a photographer but I am using mostly my own photos - which leave me a bit limited in what I can do. It is a good learning experience and I am having fun so it is a win-win.
