I think it's the first time I edit a picture in black and white. This shot comes from a training session with Lea and we had no expectation of result whatsoever. I tried figuring out a good colour scheme for that picture but couldn't achieve anything suitable, hence the decision to turn it into black and white, which is a field I'm definitely not used to yet.

Lovely portrait!!!

Very nice job on the B&W Stephane. Love the tone as well.

This is a brilliant shot. I think you have done well despite the fact that you mention that you were not familiar with editing in black & white. This is one of my favourites.

to be honest, the reason I turned it into black and white is because I didn't manage to get anything good out of the colours. In some way, it also removed it as a distraction and made the viewer focus more on the feeling. I...guess :) Thank you.
