[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Picture taken from the same weath field as before,this time with a very low pov,still 800 iso aperture 25 to get the painting like structure.To get the fish eye like effect i did increase the camera distortion.
sharpened a little and converted to B/W .Increased the midtones contrast and increased the highlights.

regards,
Leon

Ps In the workshop you can see the original photo with nothing altered except for resizing .

Lovely subject greatly caught. Just a little remarque (maybe is just my monitor): I see a little problem with BW levels, I practically cannot see the black, just a dark dark grey.

Bravo

Hi Leon,
Beautiful PoV and gread contrasting shades in this, it works great in B&W and it has worked out looking like a very detailied sketch. Great shot. TFS

Hi leon

Lovely capture. It is good range of greys. You have managed an impressive dof and sharpness. Good idea to cover sky and the cloud. WOnder how it looks in colour.

Hello Leon.
Fantastic pov.
Good convertion in B/W.
Very well done.
Ciao Mari

I like the effect - the b&w treatment draws attention to the contrasting textures of clouds at the top of frame and the wheat stalks at the bottom.
What I find most creative is the low POV, making the wheat look so high.
Great shot

The b&w conversion works very nicely with this subject! I like how it calls more attention to the lines and textures and details without color to distract:) The distortion was a good idea, also. Exotic mood and impact. Well done!
