I like it. But it doesn't seem like there is enough contrast for B&W. Just my $.02

 

[mschroeder]

Yeah, I wasn't liking the way it looked in full color so I converted it to B & W. Thanks for the input!

The conversion isn't that great. I say that because I can tell it was shot on digital at first glance.

- Love the b&w!

It is nice to see when people have "an eye" for these kinds of little things, such as the feathers forming a still life of this kind all on their own, in the way they fell.

I think you focused well and chose a pleasing DOF for this photo, and aligning the one feather with the bottom of your frame, having the other cut a diagonal line through the picture are nice elements.

The conversion could have been better. It is a bit "pale". Flat - i.e. lacking in contrasts. Nothing you could not still work on, since this version of the photo (b&w) is the result of some pp work, too. So why not just add a bit more pp work to it to make it stand out more?
