Another shot from an overnight at the Vet's office. I thought it had a really cool mood and showed a side that most people don't usually see.... I put a little extra thought into the PP and conversion on this, so I'd really appreciate it if you guys could let me know what you think! Good, bad or ugly... let me have it!

Thanks all! :)

Do you have this in a sepia? This type of image always looks better to me if it seems older... I think I may have taken the plastic garbage can out of the shot and tried to avoid the x-ray gizmo (or light or whatever it is) on the ceiling.

Very fun to knock around settings like this, though. Got any others?

Your PP work is very good. Tell us what you did.


...But still the clever north wind was not satisfied. It spoke to her of towns yet to be visited, friends yet to be discovered...

Thank you for loking! :-) I know it's not the most INTERESTING shot, but it seemed like a good one to play around with for a b&w conversion (since my photoshop skills still need a LOT of work!).

Basically, I adjusted the levels and exposure of the RAW image until i got the "richness" I was looking for. Then I converted to Jpeg, and Desaturated it. Next I bumped up the contrast and adjusted the brightness to get true Blacks and Whites instead of just "grey"... I added a light grain and a bit of a vignette..resized it, and here it is!

Any suggestions on how to improve on this would be VERY much appreciated.

Thanks!
