Hi Brian, Very good explanation. Best regards, GUS.

It was shot at iso 100, and the noise was added during PP. Film noise emulation, asa 400 film, but I don't remember which film. Best regards, GUS.

Hi Michael. The BW converted picture is much better than the colour one, IMO. The cropping is just right. Best regards, GUS.

Thank's Robert Best regards, GUS.

Hi Michael Landscape in BW is very challenging, most of the photos I convert, turn out dull. SILVER EFFEX PRO-2 helps a lot. This type of cropping was the only way to balance the picture, because...

Hi Leo, I'm enjoying  your roses phase :-) . Very nice.   I'm not very sure, but I think this is a LAELIA ORCHID. This photo was taken last year at an orchid exposition, the local of the venue was...
