Good day Flexers. Still refining the "billeotype" with SPix5, trying to find a 
cooking recipe for blacks and whites in contrast.  Often, a furr ball is your 
pet (and it's not named Dick, of course, ahem!), here is one: 
http://xavierf.b.free.fr/Temp/chouchounik/P1010273_dev.jpg It has probalby no 
photographic value but for the tonal range coupled to the shallow DOF 
(photographed with a compact equipped with Leica lens, macro mode). The B&W 
helps to distingish better the foreground from the background. The same image 
in color is... duller.Of course no dog was harmed at that moment, he was just 
looking down to a small piece of paper he let down while toring it apart :) 
Another example, here is a well known place (at least for you flexers), the 
water lock on the Marne (Digilux 3 + Vario Elmar @50mm, yesterday late 
afternoon, walking the furr ball):

yet the white is clearly present. For comparison, same in color, the textures 
seem drowned in the picture:

bridge over the Marne, at the same location:

Thanks for having read till here, Comments and Criticism or ideas to explore a 
new way are welcomed !!! Reminder : "Billeotypes" are B&W images in wich the 
HDR from SP5 is activated plus ajusting the curves to maximise the contrast.
