This was lying in the street as I walked past a construction site. I think it’s a hubcap. What do you think?

Inspired by Sandra’s awesome black and white photos, I thought the above photo might look nice in black and white. Unfortunately, I’ve only done one photo in black and white on Photoshop months ago. I’ve forgotten how to do it. *sigh* Can anyone tell me how? Thanks.

Ed. Note: Thanks Bonnie, for the tip! Got it! Thanks Peter for your tips, too. I’m going to work on it. I just looked at your links and was able to use the information to tweak the photo some more. Yay! This was fun.

I wasn’t sure how the towers worked but Mari and Joy graciously explained in the comments section of the post here.
Happy Monday, all!
