James' face - black and white

[djharmonix]

This is James, a friend of mine who came to my house the other day for the hockey game.

Since he's a comedian I told him to let me snap a couple of shots of his funny face!

It's a great shot. Love the eyes! I agree that the crop is a bit tight!

You have really over sharpened this image. Pull back on the sharpening by a bit and it might look more natural/pleasing.

you mean I have to soften it because I didn't even use any sharpening tool!

at least now I know that my lens is sharp! lol

maybe it's the B/W convertion that did it. I played with the color channels a little bit until the details really came out.

thats the effect I wanted to get tho.

thanks for your comments!! :lol:

Nice conversion, but the crop is quite tight...
