Such gorgeous light and wonderful contrast in b&w.

Really lovely work. The B&W is so nice with those beautiful shadows. Fav.

[Richard Brown]

Nice B&W when I saw your other shot I thought it would make a nice B&W as well :)

[Jorlam]

Experimenting is working beautifully.. i think colour would be superfluous for this super image.. mono lets one choose where to look whereas, sometimes, colour can hijack the eye.. the detail of the leaves is so well pronounced, they look quilted.. the light, of course, is gorgeous.. But, i also like the tattiness of some of the leaves, it's tells the viewer (roughly) the time of year.. i enjoy your mono work, you appear to have an aptitude for it..

Fav. Beautiful

[Catherine Otley]

I like it. For me it has an almost abstract look, which as you know I am partial to.

[sally agnew]

Love the detail in the leaves :)

Lovely

I like this dappled light. Works well in b&w.
