Monochromatic Melody
Same photo as yesterday converted into black and white in Photo Shop CS4.

I also used the burn and dodging tools to heighten the contrast between the center more sharply focused foreground leaves and those darker leaves in the background.

There is also a tad of sharpening and levels adjustment.

Entered into Digital Darkroom.
