This Black and White Stuff Is Infectious

Thanks Donald, I've never delved into that area before. Good to know.

Same for me. It's rather bizarre that such fine tuning is displayed in the section pertaining to film types.

IMO it looks better Dave

How's this one Binnur ?

Some very good 'fiddling' Dave. It's No 2 in the first post for me.

Sorry I am late to this party but I prefer the original image of #1 too, Dave. This is just a few steps away from the place in Flinder's Station and is also a very popular tourist pathway leading to Southgate. Weekends are busy over there with the flea market and the sidewalk chalk painters. You did not go to the Crown, or did you? Anywhooo...the second image benefitted from the crop...I thought you would have lost the sky a bit but you didn't and it turned out well. As for the sepia tone of the third image, I love it...especially with the vignette -- sort of oldish looking style of shot with modern buildings -- a bit of contrasting thought there, would have been different if the sepia is the Flinder's St. Station instead as THAT! is an real old building...love the colour version of it too of #2 but I like the conversion to B/W too.

Forget about the casino part, (I do not gamble nor drink either so the casino itself is not in my venue list of to go) I just thought you'd find it interesting to walk around the inside of the building itself because there are a lot to see over there (and photograph)...they always have a season showing of something there in the foyer of the hotel on the ground floor. I was there during the Chinese New Year and they have 3 dimensional shows there...every pieces moves. Just don't miss that spot when you go back in the area. and the restaurants on the second floor.
