Good work.
I like your B&W style

Chris

Michael Jakesz I used some gentle HDR processing and after the b/w conversion some small changes in tonality.
Thanks!

superb dynamic range, what film did you use?

Michael Jakesz Digital film :-)
No but seriously: My D50 set to ISO 200, 5 Exposure bracketing, HDR processing.
I usually avoid HDR as most of my results look a bit on the surreal side, but a couple of times it works quite well for my taste.

Glad to see this made it. Love the line created by the reflecting pool from the angle you shot it. Wonderful tones.

Michael Jakesz Thanks a bunch Judy. So you were the one person that liked it ;-) With loads of critical voices I feared this one wouldn't make it as well...
Glad it did!
