Hi David,
This is a great image in B&W. History shown on TL. Excellent sharpness and lighting even as the contrast is superb. It brings back memories from earlier days! Very well done my friend and TFS.

Hi David,
Beatiful contrast and texture on this composition. I must admit, I haven't seen much indoor photos from you. And this is flawless IMO. Best regards. Danilo

Hi David,
I like shots like this, the vintage athmosphare is very well underlined by the b/w tones. Very well comnposed and filled with lovely details and great textures.

A wonderful rendering! We visited a turn-of-the-century village here in Canada and found similarly rustic and attractive stables (little did I know that stills from my video camera were useless for posting, and I didn't have a still camera with me). Your post inspires me to go back there with proper equipment!
Cheers

Good atmospheric shot David, nicely treated in black and white - although I'd suggest that your photography and camera are almost too good for this to look "old."
That aside, it's a great shot - thanks for sharing

Now theres a switch, this really looks better this way than the original colour, or just that it suits the photo.
Good to see the old gear being displayed where it belongs and not just put out like a museum piece.

It sounds like a really interesting place to visit Dave. And This scene has me even smelling the dust and the leather, and the horses too! Looks good in BW, well done,

Hi Dave,

Good idea to use B&W as it adds to the "antiqueness" of the photo! I prefer this one to the WS.

Well seen & composed

Hi David,
This is a great shot! Great variety of textures and very sharp. Looks great in B&W, just wondering what it would look like in Sepia? TFS :-)

Hi David,
I like this ancient stable shot, and like it just as well in color, although the "neon" light coming through the window is a bit of a distraction in the color shot.
Is it your own wisdom that you quote in each of your notes? It's a very nice touch.
All the best,
Karen
