Pavo

I am trying to calibrate my monitor. What about contrast?

Pues que no has podido elegir nada más espectacular. Lo veo excelentemenete contrastado

No solamente está estupenda de contraste, sino que has hecho una muy buena foto de algo que es bastante dificil de fotografiar. Tenemos muchísimos pavos reales en Gijon y se de sobra que aquí el encuadre define completamente la foto. Estupenda.

I thnk this image works very well for being in b+w - who needs another colour image of a peacock?

The contrast is about right on my mac with lacie monitor. The image does look a bit "etched" however - over-sharpened?

Hope that helps.

I agree with you, Steve, may be a little bit oversharpened. Thank you for your comments.

Una foto, que la tendencia general sería hacerla en color, pero al estar en BN se aprecia más la textura y formas. Excelente composición Rafa.

you seem to prefer B&W even there where others would use colours, and you are right. in colour it would be an everyday photo of a peacock, in B&W it's a lace curtain, gentle and graceful. I only wish you had left more frame to this artwork. :) uh, and its contrast: on my old Samsung monitor that's just great.
