art journaling at its finest

Oh dear me, do you know Ania-Maria (or Anna-Maria) Wolniak and her art journaling pages? I'm so getting out my watercolor paint!
I discovered her talent in one of the Stampington magazines, I can't remember which one.
She's definitely awaken some jittery spark in me!!

b&w preset rome

When processing photos from my trip to Italy, I made a bunch of nice B&W Lightroom presets, one of them I'm sharing with you today.

Rich contrast and slightly pronounced grain makes it perfect for architectural or urban photos. I would advice against using it for portraits, there is too much contrast.
Don't dispair, I'm planning on making some more! :-)

As always, I'd appreciate some feedback, and respecting my TOU. Thanks bunches and enjoy!

some examples:

I would like to share another batch of photos from Italy (first part was surprisingly interesting Genova). So much to see around Genova and Florence! Little towns rich with history and beautiful atmosphere:  Lucca, San Gimignano, resort-like Portofino or well known Pisa. See them all HERE.
