I was merely making the point that the particular mix of colours and cloud found in this shot lend themselves to conversion to b&w. The shot works in colour, I happen to think it's also interesting in b&w. :-) Steve -----Original Message----- From: lug-bounces+mail=steveunsworth.co.uk@leica-users.org [mailto:lug-bounces+mail=steveunsworth.co.uk@leica-users.org] On Behalf Of Phong Sent: 22 August 2004 15:12 To: Leica Users Group Subject: RE: [Leica] Rothersthorpe Northamptonshire #5 Steve Unsworth wrote: > Up to the usual standard Graham!

I get exhausted every time I talk with them, trying to figure out what it really meant among all the verbiage. - Phong
