Excellent, well taken, monochrome suits it very well

An excellent image, as Jak said well suited to monochrome.

Hi Micheal thats worked well. I only just watched that video yesterday. He don't half make things look easy !
Any reason for the mono ? I only ask because I seldom take B&W images.

I just love B&W images, to be fair I really like the coloured version as well[emoji4]

For this shot I was shooting through double glazed patio doors and I was trying to kill as much ambient light from inside as possible (hide the clutter[emoji16]) I'm not really any good with editing so my edits are very minimal [emoji106]

Thanks Michael

You get even more points for not using strobes. Fab effort, thanks for explaining how you shot this.

Will you post up your image once you've done it? [emoji4]

Nice.

Sometimes the simplest of shots produce magic results.

Course I will if I ever do one like this. I have logged it in the back of my mind. You never know I might remember it one time

That's a lovely thoughtful shot, which you can relate to. Think the B&W suits the image very well.

I'd be printing and hanging that one [emoji108]

Excellent composition Michael, rain drops reminiscient of tears [!] to me giving it a bit more emotion.
