Not sure the mono's work here Chris, a lot of the detail has been lost, the colour version is very good

Cheers Ray

^^^I'm with Ray. The color shot looks nice with the black background.

Thank you Ray and Tim for commenting.
I was going for shapes but to be honest, the images somehow looked much better yesterday.

Glad you like the color version.

Maybe I just messed up in post. This one I processed two days earlier and now I think looks better.

Chris- to be honest, the first two B&W images here sorta didn't impress me. Because I didn't know why- I made no comment. With your last image here- I know what it was. The first two were blown up too big IMO. The last image here is just right- and I like it very much.

Thank you Charlie. Always appreciate honesty.
I tried to process them differently but I think you guys are right ....... back to the drawing board.

I definately like the color version and the reticulated look to the second BW is pretty cool. Perhaps a little more detail in the bottom LH corner would balance it out a bit.

Thank you Klaus. I really appreciate your suggestion.
Here is the minor rework. Works better for me.
