50 Jun 25 Reply Yes, Cindy, I like it - thanks, Jun 12th
50 Jun 25 Comment Paul, Snowy Owls are such interesting looking birds, aren't they? I like the BW of this and the details you have captured - the talons, the contrasting feathers especially. Even though your depth of field choice has nicely blurred the background foliage, I might suggest cropping in a little to eliminate some of it. Welcome back! Jun 10th
50 Jun 25 Comment Cindy, I love your zoo portraits. Good tonal range and, yes, textures in this. The pose and the contemplative look on his face illicit such emotion. ISO 100? Jun 9th
50 Jun 25 Comment Charles, great find! Although the composition is a bit busy, I find my eye wandering through the frame taking it all in. The image is a good choice for BW conversion - the colours, although soft in the original, detract from the shapes and textures highlighted in the monochrome. I don't think you have over-sharpened in post, however, even though I can see why you did it, I am not sure I would have cropped the top quite so tightly. Jun 9th
50 Jun 25 Comment Ger, you have captured an intriguing story here to be sure, presumably in French (ha ha). Good tonal range and textures throughout, the stonework in the background provides some context. I do find the absence of the left side of the sales person's body a little disconcerting. However, cropping him out entirely would take away from the story and, possibly including him would create a dark distraction in the foreground (you have probably thought about all this - always hard to know what to do in these circumstances, I think).

50 Jun 25 Comment James, I really like the BW of this. For me, it changes the feel of the image from a "snapshot" to more of an art piece. Nice capture of the cheeky expression on the model's face and her stance. Great job on the conversion - toning down the background helps her stand out, I think. You have also achieved good skin tones, something I often find challenging with BW portraiture. Jun 9th
