Default Moody B/W Portrait
I'd like your thoughts on the conversion here, as well as the composition. I like it, but at the same time wonder if the tilt is too much...

1/400, f/2.0, 50 mm, ISO 200

Thanks for looking!

Wow, this sucks, Aimee!

LOL you know I'm kidding - it's a really nice portrait. I like the tilt. The conversion is looking a bit dark and muddy to me, though - could use some brightening and contrast.

Talking
LOL! Thanks Susan! I had to say something to break the silence!

I agree about the muddiness...was trying not to push it too far as to turn her white, per say, but it is still too dark gray, huh.

...back to curves...
