Very nice, Baadil. She has pretty eyes. Do you have a color version?

Thank you guys.
Just a question,,,, why do you like the color pic better? Is it just because it is the original color image or is it because my BW convertion is bad... :-)

Yes, that looks very nice. I like the composition.

I like the b+w one too, but like the colour one more because I feel the colour of her dress brings the shot a good touch which it lacks in the b+w.

The b&w one looks cold to me. Not sure if it's your conversion or just the way it goes.

I love the shot though. Very pretty lady.

Thank you everyone. I'll be sure she gets the compliments you send... :-)
May be on another pic I will try different settings on the BW conversion. She really likes BW pics and I would like to have a few nice BW images for her.

Thanks again.

I think the blue plays well with her complexion.

If your using PS, try using the photo filters to see what you get in black and white.

I like them both, but maybe the B&W is more interesting for me personally. I agree that it looks a bit cold though. You can try adding a Hue/Saturation adjustemnt layer and check the "colorize" box. Then set the Hue slider to something like 40-45 for a sort of sepia tone. Or something in the blue range might look nice, too. Anyway, you can warm it up a bit while keeping the saturation low enough that it's still nearly black and white. Good luck. :)
