A great shot of my better half. I have been really preoccupied lately with B&W conversions. I was really happy with the end result on this one so I figured I would share.

Restless

As always, thanks for looking
A couple more from this series here..

Very Beautiful! A little too soft for my taste but beautiful no the less.

Thanks Leona .. She is a pretty easy subject so I guess I am pretty lucky, yes. As for the lighting Mike.. I have been inspired by the $20 DIY Home Studio thread here on the forums, it's a great read.. The lighting in this is a really just mix of home ghetto everyday incandescent lighting and some work with the shadows post process.. Thanks all for the complements..
