Beautiful portrait photograph Judi, I like the toning very much. Love the colour one also - hey I'm easily pleased - a couple of chocolate cakes and I even give 10/10 to a traffic warden !
Best wishes,
Steve

Hmmmm, cant quite decide on this one Judi.I am tending to lean towards the color version with a little work done to it to bring out the little bit of flatness it has. IMHO, your posted version has lost some of the body and depth of the pose.( for example, where her hair meets part of her dress or skirt around her knee.) It is still remarkable pice of art.

Interesting treatment - what does the model think of it ?
I don't mind the high contrast, but unfortunately (in my opinion) you've lost all detail in the dark tones.

Devo dire che anche l'originale è molto bella. L'elaborazione ha dei contrasti molto intensi tra luci ed ombre, ed è una caratteristica che mi piace, anche se è un pò in divergenza con l'espressione serena della ragazza, che guarda verso qualcosa di ignoto, ma lo fa con tranquillità.

" Be yourself " very apt title. Everybody needs should to know yourself. Lovely fine tones and the background hard line very stirring opposite. Love the model soft lines and tones. Well balanced really fine portrait. Nice artwork dear Susie.
My best regards!

ps: ...the original version is wonderful, but this one better. :)

Dear Judi I don't know wich is the best in the B&W version i like the toning with the dramatic effect added by the high contrast, but i miss the details on hair thet i like so much in the colour version.
The colour one seem a bit flat but I think that every effort was on the B&W.
Best regards Fabio

It has a very organic feel to it, as if her face is growing out of the rock, since you've crushed the blacks.
I'm not sure about this one.

K Judi...I never find fault with your images...stellar photographer that you are, but the light in the original is a bit flat for my taste. So the effect does give the image more character, and for that reason I'd go with that. Not so long ago I had the light go that way in a shoot and used Niks midnight green and midnight violet filters to get similar dramatic effects (see the closeup shot called Faery". A good way to go.

Judi,
Funny you should mention the high spots... I haven't had too much experience with photoshop. I've mostly just been picking up a little here and there. What I've been doing with a lot of my shots is convert to greyscale, then go back to colour and use the colour balance adjusters to tone to taste. I find this sometimes turns the high spots nice and creamy looking. Quite often the effect is much more dramatic than the colour shot. I don't know if this is the recommended way to do this, but I like the results. Check out my two photos from a couple of days ago called "38 Delux" and compare the B&W toned to the coloured one and you will see what I mean.

Being someone who struggles making up my mind, let me just say that I like both shots for very different reasons. The feel you get with the effects really set the mood well. It demonstrates a timelessness and moodiness.
The original version is very well done because the setting has such muted tones that seem to compliment the model and her skin tones. She also has such fair and perfect skin which is highlighted in the original.
I vote for BOTH!!
Mark
