Jordan Otto; recipe b&w/mystery; POW

Black and White Recipe
Jordan Otto

The phone that I use is an Iphone 5 with iOS 7.1.2.  For my POW, I used the PHOTO FX app.  First, I selected Black and White.  I was surprised when the next option gave me colors to choose from in black and white, if anyone knows what this is all about, let me know.  I went with normal to be safe.    Next, I added a tiny bit of grain that is almost impossible to see.  What I really appreciate about this app, is that it has a before/after icon.  This allows you to view the original and filtered image you are editing.  I am still trying to grasp more knowledge about this specific app if anyone wants to give me some tips!  

Unfortunately, my technique wasn't as elaborate as I would have hoped.  I chose to find an area of the barn that I thought I could really catch a good angle.  I was also satisfied that I could get the windows from the loft into the photo. The windows ended up making a great reflection, which added a mysterious feel.  I laid on the ground and messed with a couple different views, took a couple of shots and then ended up loving this one.
