Nice work with the monochrome conversion Pascalie.
I like the silvery feel to the tones.
The sky is very dramatic with that big dark cloud.
I like your POV of choice, very effective.
Have a great Holiday Season!

Hello Pascalie,

Excellent black & white photo.
Lighting and composition are fantastic.
Good definition.

hello

this is nice monochrome picture....good job..tfs

:-)

Hi Pascalie. To make a B&W image work you need a good subject and you need a full range of tones. This picture has a good subject but the flat cloud tones make the sky a little dull. The blacks could also do with a little work to get the most from the picture.
If you are happy with the tonal range, then I would have been tempted to crop the sky a little to take away much of the flat cloud.
But it is all down to personal preferences.

Hello Pascalie,

Very nice photograph of the boats on the river! Very nice use of the b/w.

Good Work and tfs

regards,
Christian

This place is called "Le Caraquis" and the path can lead you almost till the Cathedral or to a sort of big spillway to avoid overflows : great landscape for walking and meditating.
Good POV ; the picture could be a bit more put in contrast but IMO not so much as in the ws proposed

Hi Pascalie,
What an amazing B&W composition vith a peaceful atmosphere.TFS.
Bravo et amitié,

Dear Pascalie,
Beautiful B&W picture!
Great POV and composition (depth!)
I like the light in the BG and the reflection in the water.
Well done my friend!
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

TFS and greetings from Netherlands,

Salut Pascalie
Quand on a un bout de ciel blanc - surexposé - le passage en noir et blanc est une très bonne solution pour 'récupérer' une photo. Ici ça fonctionne très bien, même si elle aurait mérité un peu plus de contraste. Bien vu.
Amicalement

Salut Pascalie..et bonne fete!

Un beau pti noir et blanc avec de nombreux détails..La lecture est agréable mais le chemin vide me gene,j'y aurai bien vu un élément qui se détache de tout ce paysage..(peluche,chat,paire de chaussures..^^)
Mais on ne peut qu'apprécier la ballade! :)

Au plaisir!

Bonjour Pascalie,
Ce monochrome est agréable à la vue, le choix du NB justifié mais je ne sais pas vraiment pourquoi, je n'adhère pas. Photo trop nette, trop classique peut-être, avec trop d'éléments ???... Désolé Pascalie, mais je t'écris ce que je ressens, ne m'en veux pas trop...
Bonne année 2009 à toi et à tes proches.
Pascal

Not a bad shot, I would've crouched down a bit and get a lower shot to avoid the group of branches on the top right. I thought they're a litte messy. But overall, it's a good B & W.

Hallo Pascalie,
Sehr schönes S/W Foto. Ich mg die Details und die schärfe in diesem Foto. Sehr gute arbeit Pascalie.

Gruß,
Chris
