Very, Very nice Carlo. I really like the two B+W - particularly the second one and I would never have thought of a conversion, but the lines of the pier, allied to the great light works very well in this medium. Very nicely done on the compositions in the first two which make the most of the mirrored reflections of the mountains. I particularly like the first where the large sky really emphasised the reflected image of the hills, without the sky.
PS I'm off to Victoria tomorrow - BarryCold and all; but I think I'll be lying low for a while (whilst I recover from the last two weeks) once I get there.
What a stunning group of images. My favourite is the 3rd shot. Portrait strength comes through eloquently. I love the B & W treatment on this one. You've taken this shot and through your craft have managed to keep the pier simplicity well contained. I love how the reflection creates this wonderful maze.

Thanks, Martin! I have just ordered a large print of the last one ... I hope you got to Victoria without suffering too much!

Nice captures, looks like the weather cooperated on the day - I've always ended up with cloud cover. The B+W conversions are very nice. Mirza
We were very lucky. The sky was closed most of the day, but we were on the right spots each time the sun came through!

Yes, that pier just screamed "B&W!" to me.
