    I love this one, B.D. The contrast really makes this stand out.

    Lots and lots of green is a nightmare for B&W conversion. It's a harsh attempt but the result doesn't leave much subtly. I think it's worth giving up B&W on this one. Desaturate the colour version and maintain the shadow of the kid. A ton of potential.

    I actually love what B.D. has done with the conversion and wouldn't change a thing. It could almost be 'The Dark Knight Throws A Frisbee.' :D

    I believe Jenn is partially right. The problem here isn't really the green though, it's over sharpening. I should know better.:-(
