Description

1/60s at f3.2 iso200
Nikon AF Zoom-Nikkor 70-200mm f/2.8 VR DG IF-ED, on Nikon d200

This lovely chap was sat on a wall on one of the main streets in Paris around lunch time.

He rapdily agreed to being photographed and although the original colour shot was detailed I felt more character was evident in b/w.

Pocessing as follows.

Colour channel coversion to B/W
Selective use of curves
Selective burning
Small crop
Unsharp mask
Save for the web
