Love of Nature, black & white version

The model said she preferred the color - I rather like the black and white

Like this a lot !

I don't remember seeing the color version but I really like this. It has a very classic feel. The lighting works well as does the composition.

The two images have entirely different feelings. This is quite dramatic. The color version is very pretty but has much less emotion.

The color version is in another folder.

I have now moved these monochrome - color experiments to a single folder, so you can see both versions by pressing the arrows.

 

I prefer the B & W version, it seems to communicate a greater sense of drama.  For a while I couldn't quite nail what it was that struck me about this image,  then it came to me...........its the pose and angle of the girl, she has all the elegance and regal lines of a ships figure head.

Compliments & Best Regards
