A beautiful day in London makes for empty black cabs and double-deckers.

The shiny cab with all the reflections bouncing off it really anchors the photo for me. I like it a lot!

That is one shiny car!! So often B&W is thought of as dramatic, moody, mysterious … in this one though, the sun shines through!

Gotta love the taxi driver for keeping his car so nice and clean so that it reflected that wonderful light like it did 🙂 Thanks, Laurie!

Hi, Mike! I wasn’t sure how losing the red of the double decker would work, but all the tones and shadows and light of the photo just cried out for B&W. In the end, I much prefer this version 🙂

I’m loving everything about this shot, the black taxi, the double decker bus, the trees in the background and that architecture. I want to be there.

Great capture Stacy, I love the look of the double decker bus and those London taxi’s were just made for B&W. Great job 🙂

Thanks, Joe. Funny, I shot this picture over three years ago, way before I even considered B&W photography. Heck, way before I even knew anything about photography apart from pointing and shooting. I’ve had this photo sitting in my archives for the longest time, in full color. This journey into the realm of B&W continues to bring new life to some of my past photos. As hard as it was to “give up” the wonderful red of the double decker, the conversion was definitely the way to go here. So glad you like it 🙂
