  1. Interesting location/specie combination Ludo, and good choice going for monochrome, it's my fallback as well sometimes. Posted 12 years ago
  2. The monochrome is not that suited for this picture I think. But I guess you made the right decision when the colored one is really bad. Posted 12 years ago
  3. @Ferdy: thanks, glad you like the mono thing.
    @Joost: I like the effect though, it has a serene quality to it, peaceful and studying facets. Besides that, the coloured version was indeed flaky.
