Philippe,
That’s a wonderful photo and is a teaching moment as well! Thank you.
This poor guy demonstrates learning the hard way.
Reminds me of the old saying that good judgement comes from experience and
experience comes for bad judgement.
Best,
Bill

Who’s that guy? Is this your friend David, my elder son (currently in Ottawa
BTW) asked after I had sent him your photo.

I said nope, David learned from Rose this is not much of a good idea ;-)
OTT : we attended a calf rodeo when my afore quoted son was 6 or 7 , and he
volunteered to get down onto the arena with other kids - that’s how he
learned to fly … and why I had sent him your photo, teasing him in the
process.

Good Evening, Philippe ... (or Good morning, to you, by the time you read

I agree, your B&W version of my shot is MUCH better than mine.
But, as I said, in my last note, "Now, very one of us is different, and we
all see things differently - so there is no right or wrong." Ask 5
photographers to shoot the same scene, and you'll get 5 very different views
of the subject.
But, for me, this particular photo loses so much in B&W, that I would not
even consider it. But, then, that's me. And only me. YMMV.
But you did do a heck-of-a-job improving my clumsy B&W conversion. :-)
Thanks.
David.
Thanks David------
What about reworking it a bit in this direction

What I originally meant was that in BW it would certainly set the focus
more on the guy's face which I lightened up a bit (and soul as per Ted)
as well as the animal's.
