hehe, i have to admit i kind of feel that way. i feel very weird about having won on my first try. i'm certain i've jinxed any further attempts...

thanks very much! yeah, that kind of editing technique i really favor often. i find that for a lot of my images, i need them to look good in b&w before i'm satisfied with how they look in color. and lab is such a weird and wonderful colorspace to work in.

cheers,
dr
