    Interesting compositions but too many blown highlights in critical areas.

    Hey Charles,

    Thanks for the feedback, looks like I was a bit overzealous with my post processing...I tend towards high key B&W, but i over did it a bit.

    I have redone the second image...and it's posted in the original message.

    Cheers,

    David

    Can you rescue the man's forehead? We see the start of some detail on either side but the detail is lost and instead the blown part creates a set of unnaturally angled lines running up.
