Hi Steve,
Having looked at this photo in both colour and B&W, as much as I like
colour, I much prefer the B&W. WHY? Well in colour the colours are so
powerful they almost override looking at the dog. And I don't think you see
as much "hair detail", if that matters, in the hair on the head.
I know folks are always going on about detail in whatever surface, but it
seems very noticeable here in colour.
In B&W you've retained detail and I think it kind of finishes off the
picture quality if nothing else. No question it's a "great Dane" photo from
the low angle. Interesting as you must have been lying on your belly or as
you say. "down on your knees!" Sure increases the strength and look of the
dog. But if by chance he decided to snap yer head off? OOPS!!!!!! :-)
Having said that, I know you'll come back with, "this dog is as gentle as a
puppy." :-)
