Rekvik Pier Mono | Info + Comments (10)

Time flies and the two weeks since my last post are already over. But that's good. It means spring will come soon. Well, being optimistic about this one.

I have been planning to do a certain image, but somehow, even during now more than two months of winter, the conditions are right always at the wrong time. Guess I have to wait a little longer. Maybe I get my chance.

In a few weeks I'll be hopefully off for a few to Norway if nothing unexpected come up that is.

Todays post is something that I haven't done before. Meaning, posting a different version of an already published image, Rekvik Pier.

I decided to do so for several reasons.. I like it very much and it should find it's place in my portfolio of course. Also it marked the beginning of my venture into B&W conversion, which since then has become an integral part of my imagery. As this was one of my images that I converted into B&W, a major credit to the editing goes to my friend and Kai Tirkkonen, who used this image, to show me how the software works. And additionally, and here comes the shameless self-promotion plug, I have it on sale at the moment in my newly launched "Print Of The Month" series.

On a side note, I'd like to point out that, the Photoblog Awards are opened and you are more than welcome to vote for this blog of mine if should like it, of course.

And on another little note, I would like to point you to my recently launched personal blog over at Wordpress, Too Much Latte.

But that's enough for today. As this is not a "fresh" image, I will post the next one already next Friday. Until then I hope you enjoyed this image and thanks a lot for visiting my site.

Thanks a lot for all your comments. I'm happy to hear that you like it.

@Mirko: Glad you like the B&W. Even though I like the colour one also, I kind of prefer this one.
