Comments by Maria Salvador on Mon, 08/06/12 04:18 No tripod, and the histogram says no blown out highlights on the original, but I agree, the light is quite ugly! Comments by Pietro Cecchi on Mon, 08/06/12 04:22 Surreal effect on the B&W version, Maria... :)
Comments by Paul Bracey on Mon, 08/06/12 04:27 excellent Comments by Vladimir Vorobeychik on Mon, 08/06/12 05:35 The B&W image is much better. I like the processing of the original. Comments by Jan Bjorklund on Mon, 08/06/12 06:11 I like your b&w version in which the brave little dog stands out strongly on the staircase.

Comments by Ruth Rittichier on Mon, 08/06/12 15:12 I like the B&W, and the treatment you used. That little dog looks so regal as he stands at attention. Comments by Bruce Hunter on Mon, 08/06/12 23:23 I vote for the B&W version, as well......the dog is posed in just the right spot, too. If you don't mind though, the title that popped into my mind for this was, "The Sentinel " :-) Comments by Ernest Cadegan on Tue, 08/07/12 08:25 They both have their merits but I prefer the colour. In either case I
