6/8/08 - Tinted Calla

Another in my series of B&W conversion experiments. Tried for dark and moody with a slight sepia tint. Slightly burned 3 sides (all but top) and added a hint of grain.
If you're into the Zone System, this image has every zone from pure black up through white - but omits pure white. Most of the frame perimeter is black and the brightest area - white with detail - is the lower portion of the upper left lily.
Here's a link to the original - http://www.pbase.com/ed_k/image/98221834 - which is a nice shot of calla lilies, but this monochrome version is more "arty" - just my opinion.

Nikon D300
1/200s f/3.0 at 105.0mm iso200 full exif

other sizes: small medium original auto
