Having now seen the B&W conversion, I think it's that the leaf gets "lost" in the whole thing in colour. It's much easier for me to pick up in the monochrome version. Yes, it's easier to see the water in the colour version, but I think the textures of the rocks are much nicer and more visible in B&W. Overall, I prefer the B&W version. Lovely photo. cheers, frank ============== Thanks, frank. Well, the color version (and this) are a crop. And I debated cropping it even tighter (I like the big rock on the left, though). But that would probably help the color version, re focus on leaf. B&W does tend to make drama easier, that's for sure. Makes it tempting, I must say, to do B&W all de darn time. But look who I'm talking to about drama. Heh. Marnie aka Doe ;-) --------------------------------------------- We can't solve problems by using the same kind of thinking we used when we created them.
