Hello October! In the northern hemisphere, we are experiencing one of the most beautiful seasons of all, in my opinion.
For Lynn's October challenge, I would like you to create a black and white page, with at least one black and white photo. However, as a nod to the color around us, you may use a pop of color, and that color may be used more than once.
See my Halloween-themed layout as an example. I used a black & white adjustment layer along with levels to desaturate and boost contrast for whatever was not black & white. I also increased saturation of the red tones (my pop of color) to make them more vivid.
Mixing several of Lynn's Halloween-themed products: Poe Faced, Midnight Brooms, Nocturne, Batty.

And here are other examples from the team for more inspiration:

Thank you for joining the October challenge. Have fun! As always, I love seeing your creations.
