http://www.mindspring.com/~megazip/PESO_--_connrvr1.html Technical Info: Pentax *ist-Ds ISO 400 @ 1/125sec smc Pentax-FA 20-35mm f4.0 AL @ f5.6 (28mm) As usual comments are welcome but may be totally ignored, (even those I like,, and agree with, by the way). Since my last couple of B&W conversions seem to have been ignored, I might as well solicit comments. ======== The B&W conversion looks okay, though I am not a B&W gal and no expert on that. However, it does have tonal range. Pic doesn't do much for me though, it seems to bang the eye from table to rock to dome in the background. Not an even and smooth eye progression -- more if a bumpy one. I think a different angle on the table or rock would have been better, or just including one or the other, but not both. There seems to be very little connection between things. While this may work sometimes, like with your Zen stuff, it doesn't work all the time. At least not for me. Sorry, that's the best that I can put it in words -- i.e. it doesn't ring my chimes. Marnie aka Doe :-)
