Nice poses but I might have made the monoshots a little lighter, to my mind they seem a bit gloomy and flat.
Best wishes,

Thanks for the comments folks, I do struggle with skin tones in black and white, and tend to go the darker route, I will have to have a play with pp. Many thanks, I am really impressed with the sharpness of this little secondhand 28mm.

Well I have tried to lighten, and treat a few differently, crop, contrast etc, are these any better?
