hey Mel, this is great, you are just way too clever, but I’m pleased there was a little spot left for me to get a comment!!!

Splendid image Mel, the tree feels like a Elfin nymph floating across the lake

wow – this has an amazing quality about it – just stunning… the texture, feel and flavour are so unique. Great work! LOVE THIS

this is a great shot.. awesome work

Mel, it`s cool to see your 16 mm in mono… it SO works. And your tonal range is unique. How did you convert to get that gorgeous balance? Nice work, as per normal!!

Wow! Mel, this is awesome! I love the colour of this.. had to say that first as I’m a big fan of these kind of tones… secondly and perhaps more importantly, its a great shot to begin with.. love the framing and perspective and the detail in the tree is great. Another favourite!

Love the look of this one Mel, the composition and subject material are also first class.

Love these tones, Mel. The framing is perfect and the detail in the trees is fantastic.

Thanks so much everyone. I use an action from Digidaan for most of my black and white conversions. Then add curves to get the tones.

It’s a fantastic find, beautifully taken and prosessed. I love it.

Interesting style Mel…i thought maybe it was infrared…nope…just Mel mixing it up!

Way cool!!

terrific image, lots to like

Mel this is wonderful, glad to see someone else uses photomatix. I have only just started with it.
