Not a big fan of images taken in color that are converted to greyscale post capture. It is difficult to get it right

Too busy for a monochromatic shot.

You wull not want to tangle with those two! I like just the hint of the house.

Is that what the German Shepherd is saying? The crisp detail and the lovely light here are exquisite. Super choice going with black and white. This is a really tough composition to pull off but you have done it with aplomb. The more I look at the photo, the more I see ways in which it's inherent clutter could have turned it into a muddled disaster, but I also see how some combination of great skill and luck has pulled everything together. Super Effort.

Looks like you weren't exactly welcome to take this shot ;-)

Original idea, but the background is too busy. You almost can't make out the fence.

The welcoming party doesn't look too friendly.

Scary dogs! Nice shot. Like the b/w. Image on the whole is a little busy IMHO.

Looks like you grabbed the attention of those dogs there! :)

Very tranquil until you notice those two very large, aggitated dogs. Then I think, nope, not gonna' try and sell Tupperware here! lol I like the B&W, good shot, just a little busy.

I like this shot a lot. The highlights are slightly blown it looks, but still conveys a sense of affluence to me.
08/03/2005 09:14:29 AM
I like this alot. The dogs add to the interest. Good use of black and white. Different - I like it.

I like the ironic title. I don't know if it suits well in BW.
