I found this one quite difficult to process. It was easy to get caught up in all of the detail with this engine, but I finally decided to make it B&W and selectively light the name to try and simplify it and provide some focus for the eye. Thanks for looking.

    Nice shot, John. I like your PP on this one.

    I always wanted to lie naked on a bearskin rug in front of a fireplace. Cracker Barrel didn't take kindly to it.

    I like this, very nice job on the PP.

    But I have to admit this was not the first thing that came to my mind when I read "Cobra" as the title. :D

    Very very nice conversion. To me. Black and white is harder to process than color to make it come out just right. You're a better man than me haha.

    Thanks Jonathan and Grant. I hope there was enough venom to make up for the title, Jonathan! :)

    Grant, I'm surely not a better man than you, but thanks for the compliment.

    Oh yes, it definitely had enough for me. But when I thought it might be a reptilian subject, I was curious to see if you opted for focal length or sheer bravery. :giggle
