This is a monochrome-themed competition that is open to all CiC members.
ENTERING. Add your MONOCHROME/B&W image in a new post below. Make sure to change your post title to a name for your picture (click the "Go Advanced" button). Only one entry per person, and any tinted images should utilize no more than one color. For help posting images, go here.
VOTING. When this competition reaches 10 entries, a poll will be automatically added and any member may then vote. After 2 days, voting ends and the winner is determined.
Once voting begins, a new competition will be automatically started.
Good luck!
Notes: Please do not request feedback or comment on other images until after voting has closed, as it could be unfair to other entrants. Photos must be your own, and never entered into one of our prior competitions. We also ask that only recently taken or edited photos be used as entries (in the spirit of motivating everyone to continually improve).
PS: Make sure to also vote on the previous competition here.

Re: The Conversation
Thank you all for youre votes!
newamit, is that compliment and question for everyone? well i thank for it anyway!
I really like the lighting in your portrait, and its well cropped. If you care for any critique, that beam or frame dominating the right side of the picture is stealing a bit of attention, so it distracts slightly. only my opinion
For my picture I used canon EF 28-135mm f3.5-5.6 is usm @ 28mm.
Canon EOS 20D
ISO 200
f/7.1
1/160s
Brought the contrast up in photoshop with multiplying layer, desaturing that copy and setting opacity to overlay. Then i made the whole picture a black and white with channel mixer, gave it tint and used unsharpen mask for sharpening.
