I'm learning how to use the B&W monotone in-camera - red filter

Todays Posting - #TW6 - Black and White

Black & White #TW6. During the next 7 days attempt the following three assignments and then post your shots in the group. (Either put #TW6 in the tags or description so we can identify them). If you wish post them in the discussion group for this assignment.
Last week saw us using light to highlight features within the shot, so this week let’s see how well we done by taking shots in Black and White. The idea is to use the B&W choice on the camera rather than converting the image in photo editing software, why. Well digital cameras take colour images and then convert them on board using the install software/firmware; the idea of the assignment is to understand how your camera handles light and the conversion.
Three of the following is the aim;
A person, bird or animal (one of)
A building exterior, stone, masonry a solid non transparent material is preferred to understand how the light reflects off of these
Landscape, townscape or seascape
Glass, glasses including the view through
A brightly coloured object of your choice; examples would be a very bright yellow ball on green or some very vibrant toys
As a bonus and for fun a B&W with one colour popped out in post processing

Ghost Ship: The Mysterious True Story of the Mary Celeste and Her Missing Crew. by Brian Hicks
On December 4th, 1872, a 100-foot brigantine was discovered drifting through the North Atlantic without a soul on board. Not a sign of struggle, not a shred of damage, no ransacked cargo—and not a trace of the captain, his wife and daughter, or the crew. What happened on board the ghost ship Mary Celeste has baffled and tantalized the world for 130 years. In his stunning new book, award-winning journalist Brian Hicks plumbs the depths of this fabled nautical mystery and finally uncovers the truth.
