    Hi,
    I've added another collection of Black N White images to my website. This time all were taken at night.
    You might find these photos are best viewed using the Slideshow or Dim the lights features on the page or
    just click on each image to enlarge.
    I'm still trying to get an aged look to the images to make them look a bit more moody.
    Hope you enjoy!

    Well, it sorts out the GCR's 8F's colour! Nah, kidding, it looks surprisingly good.

    The photo of the 8f you mention was taken in 2009 and is No48305 which is Black. No8624 Arrived in March 2011. I think there are only a couple of shots of it on my website. Wonder why?
    Thanks for the comments guys!
    To add some grain was the next phase in my plans. I have tried it but not got the effect quite right yet!

    Regards..........Rick

    Those are very good, there's something about mono work still.
    Did you put the website together yourself? - if so, it is well presented. I ask this because there isn't a name shown of one of the commercial sites.

    Yes indeed there are some good shots there. What's more IMHO being Black & White adds rather detracts from the subject. In the same way it did with Speilbergs' Schindlers List......
