I've been playing a little with B&W conversions of some of my photos. I like the way that some of these look up on the wall. This is one. I've posted the color image of this one on here before. Pushed it a bit in Topaz before B&W conversion.

Thanks for the comments. After I submitted this, I realized that it was the wrong one. This one was the work in progress. But since you all (or yall, in this part of the country :-) had already made some very nice comments on this by the time I caught it, I have left it in. #8852177Gail Vitikacs August 22, 2010
