Yup! agree with all of the above.

I'm no expert, but for me it looks too grey. Hope that makes sense!
Agreed, the image doesnt have enough contrast, it needs more lighter tones, as it stands its just drab and depressing, a bit like watching Eastenders

Colour images are usually always lacking in contrast when turned in to black and white, try adjusting the levels or the curves.

Thought you all may be interested in this, but be warned there are a few very disturbing images here, though you have the option to view them or not.

Its in three parts:

Cant really comment on this one Clarky, the image doesn't really convey a sense of the place, maybe if you sent me some airline tickets I could visit and give you a better idea

Actually I like Malo's crop, the guy on the third and just the one dog, not sure about the B&W though, keep it colour.

I'm fairly ambidextrous, write left handed, played guitar right handed, eat with knife and fork right handed but use a spoon left handed, can use most hand tools in either hand.....

......and you guessed it, I'm one of those oddballs that uses the camera both ways in portrait and not even aware that I'm doing it, and like Stefan its always right hand up with a monopod

Love the monochrome treatment but absolutely hate the colour cast, I just saved this to my desktop and opened it up in photoshop where I desaturated the image.....perfect

Lose the Cast Ian

Nicw shot Ross, the B&W treatment really gives it the edge.
