Re: Golden Eagle portrait conversion.

Not sure about it to be honest- it's a fab shot, beautiful, sharp and clear - but somehow I'm not sure it works in Mono - maybe it's the contrast? It's not that it blends into the background, far from it, it's very nicely converted, I'm just not sure it works for me.

Re: Golden Eagle portrait conversion.

I think there is potential for a good mono there, you just need to give your conversion a bit more punch.
