    I really like these shots, for all the reasons stated already, and especially for what you've done with the contrast. These are "brighter" than one would expect for such a scene, but it really works for me.

    Thanks for the comments. The area was well fenced. See http://www.photography.ca/Forums/f22...nce-14091.html These were taken from the gate, where there was a gap. First shot is 18 mm, second 24 mm; both are f/5 at 1/1000. Loving those wide angle lenses, aren't we?

    I usually don't go for B&W shots that lack the blacks but these work very well. Barefoot (member here at ph.ca) used to do a few similar to this feel and were always well received as well. Nice work.

    Thanks EdG and MA. There was a lot of grey in the scene already, so not a whole lot of color to remove/replace.
