Pierre, as the others have said, these are very very good indeed.  You see
things well.

I am curious about 2 things:

--I took a quick look at your website and I saw all color.  Why did you you
decide to shoot b&w?  Do you have a history of shooting b&w?

--Your images (viewed on two different monitors) have very good contrast
with nice blacks, better than some other Monochrom images I have seen.
 What post-processing work flow are you using?  Do you find the images from
this camera are a bit flat without some more work?

Thanks,
