Hello Don
I like the quality of the buildings on the left side but things are rather dark on right side. A little on the contrasty side. You really should treat yourself to a new scanner!!! You can achieve very good results with a low priced scanner
Happy shooting

Hello Don,
Despite your comments i think you managed a good conversion and the shot itself must have been pretty good. I think you lost some details on the right side of the bank which looks like an array of cars. Anyway nice shot, see you around.

Ben nooit zo dol op Zwart-Wit in't algemeen Don, maar Delft heeft daarentegen altijd een zwak plekje bij mij
en de compo en scherpte zijn prima

Ok dan heb ik het niet over de kwaliteit van de foto in techische zin. De compositie is gewoon goed. de 1/3 1/3 regel is duidelijk zichtbaar. Het verdwijnpunt van de gracht voldoet daar niet aan. maar wat zijn regels? Ik weet hoe dit soort opdrachten verlopen en hoe moeilijk het is.
Zelf vind ik de foto niet mooi of aantrekkelijk maar denk wel dat je aan een opdracht voldaan hebt.

Hi Don

Good lighting tonal range & pov. The foreground railing & curving canal add depth. Congratulations!

Wonderful work Don :) I know that a lot is loft with scanners but even with this problem here we can see a great shot! Bravo!

Beetje somber maar ook ik ben geen zwart wit man
Hoewel een fotoman een allrounder moet zijn
De moeite heb je genomen Don en dat is ook belangrijk.

Hi Don, dus ging 'back to basics' - zal wel zeer leerrijk geweest zijn !

Zoals je weet, ben ik een grote fan van z/w. De rechterkant van je foto is een beetje donker, maar dat stoort mij niet echt.

Hi Don,

Very nice B&W. Good POV, and nice presentation. I also like the strong contrasts between left and right side. imo it makes a very intersting image

Well done!

take care, Stef :))

Hi Don,
Beautiful composition! I like the perspective here, including the railing up front is a masterpiece... Your contrasty B&W work fine with me...

Hi Don, nice captured. I like the POV and the B&W color is a perfect choice. Well done.

Beautiful shot Don, great use of black and white. Nicley composed, like the way you have almost managed to hide the row of cars.

Nice B&W, Don, with an interesting composition. I am not certain if I like the railing taking so much space in the foreground. Maybe it would have been better taking a higher view to focus on the beautiful house of Delft. I like the high contrast because it hides the car on the right side. Well done!

I love Delft, it is my favorite town in the Netherlands, so I will definitely be on a look out of your other pictures. :)

I like the unusual composition of this photograph that catches attention. It seems to me that the bottom right corner is a little too dark. Perhaps, removing some of the tree branches from the top would have made the picture cleaner, but it is personal preference.

Look forward to more pictures. :)

What an interesting course you had Don - sounds great. But I think I would find it so hard going back to a film camera. I don't know what to do with my 2 old cameras now.

Great view and I do like it in BW. I find it so interesting seeing houses built right on the water. How did they build them like that?
Well done, thank you.
