Interesting, Jim. Visine might love it for an ad. I would like to see it in full color, and think I would personally prefer that. It's a great pose and nicely detailed.
Jim, I don't know much about black and white. I like this but the whites don't look white and the blacks don't look black. I guess it looks as though it has some cast to it. I think someone who has experience in B&W could give you some good advice on how to make this cool capture pop. I love the red eye!
Great idea. Like the comp. and the setting. I think the image overall seems a bit flat. It lacks some much needed contrast. As stated above , the blacks and whites seem a bit muddy. How did you make the conversion?
Cool fishing pose with the raised leg, and well placed in the frame. Good idea with the selective colouring, but my honest opinion, I really feel this would look better in its original colour. I feel there are only certain species that one can convert to B&W and make it work.
My opinion is that I love birds for their great colours so B&W doesn't work for me in most cases. This is very different though, good idea with coloured eye but would like to also see the coloured version TFS
