This is my niece, Sophie. I caught her today, the little 'runaround' that she is.

I love the way you have captured her eyes...they are soooo tack sharp! I especially love the fact that you did not capture a smile but rather her wide eye wonder!!!

Love this photo!

Here is the monochrome image with no work done on it:

I do love the full frame mono shot of this too. The space was intended, and I love it.
I hate the straight colour shot though.

I prefer the colour version I find the B&W a bit "in your face" especially with the tight crop, does anyone else see this or is it just my wierd perception of things.

Nice handling of the skin tones BTW.

I prefer the B&W one myself. Another cracking shot Pauly, loving your B&W photos.

I just wish I could get the same results as Pauly.

Really like both shots

The background on the colour shot is lovely, a sort of pea soup green.

Ok here's sommat whacky, why not have the green background then your niece in B&W?

Experimenting is fun

Maybe you should try to get the same results, show them on here. There's no harm in trying is there

The black and white one is louder.....but loudness has its place too! I loved the B&W.
