Black and white

I wondered what this shot would look like as a high-ish contrast BW.

I like it, although the neck may benefit from a little more work.

 

What do you think?

very good bw.shot..great composition and light..congrats.

Magnifica y bella, Peter. Chapeau

It works beautifully in black and white. And I agree about the neck. It looks like you could isolate it quite easily in ps and bring up the exposure a bit. Good shot!

Yes, a good treatment of the original. The stark black and white tones work well.

Hello all, thanks for looking.

 

The number of 3s on this is a record for me.

 

I may work on another version and pull this when it's ready to be replaced. It's produced some very strong reactions, it's a shame those who thought it poor weren't prepared to say why.

 

All the best.
