well my effort at black and white was not too good in the wildlife challenge, albeit Sandy did like it, I wasn't entirely happy with it, here is the original resized version, I would like to see what others come up with. Should be interesting.

Nice shot, Neat. I didn't mess with any cropping. I think color is a better choice, as the red beak is a nice dash of contrast in an otherwise colorless photo. Overcooked as always, but here's my very quick shot at it.

Not to everyone's liking I am sure:)

It wants to be color. Here's my shot at it, Viveza and CEP4. The crop is to the golden ratio for the location of the eye.

I like this version but maybe do a hint of noise reduction such as Topaz DeNoise 5 (even with Nik software Topaz is still my favorite Noise reduction software).

I like what you did with the processing. I think you got the most you could out of the original. It got a 6 from me.

Here's an attempt. I don't feel like I'm done, but I gotta run. I might work on it more when I get home tonight if I have time. I can post steps if anyone is interested, but... I gotta go! :D

Mine's not as good as Art's -- but how can we begin to compare to him??

Well I guess that's better than a 5 ;)

Now here is another one that I nearly entered but I didn't like my edit, this one - it's too soft, and when I sharpened it, it looked horrible,
and the original, see what you can come up with now, I'd like to see how Wendy would edit it.

This was a hard one, this is the best I could do.
I blurred the background and sharpened the swan. Then a little color and shadows.
