This is the beginning blooms of a century plant.

I thought the french fry look was best seen in b/w.
tonal curves after converting b/w
cropped
iso 400
1/500 s
f/5.6
55 mm

c/c always appreciated
Best if you would click and view on their darker background.

All we need now is the burger to go with them....... :)   The b/w really brings out the crisp detail here AnnaMaria.

Hi

I just commented upon another B&W image where I thought the conversion looks a little lack lustre in terms of tonality - thinking perhaps it was my monitor; well this one looks nicely converted - good white and blacks; nice image


All the best
Matthew

Thanks All for your comments. Getting tones correct in a b/w is always a high learning curve for me.
