Where have the colours gone?

I'm not the biggest fan of Black and White photography but maybe that's because it takes some effort to convert a drab, uninspiring colour photo to a striking B&W. There are sliders to adjust, brushes to apply and a million other things to do. Although I have no problems editing a photo till kingdom come I try not to spend too much time fiddling around - it can drive you nuts, and I'm already far up the scale in that regard, but I digress. 

After a very dry summer Gozo has been well and truly flushed with water. I remembered a waterfall I once saw in Lunzjata Valley during a shoot and decided to head there and see what the state of it was. By no means it is not Niagra or Angel Falls but hey this is Gozo and we have to be happy with Nature's gifts. 

I hope you like my efforts but hopefully this start will allow me to delve deeper into the intriguing world of Black and White Photography.
