Inspired by Gerry's request for a monochrome I processed a few other shots from the Maroubra no sun shoot with different monochrome processing looks - I'd be interested to see what people think...

First a redoing of the image which started this all off:


NIKON D90 + 17.0-50.0 mm f/2.8 @ 17 mm, 6 sec at f / 22, ISO 200 + CPL

Next a fairly heavily processed version of a different one of the images I took of this composition I liked probably the best.


NIKON D90 + 17.0-50.0 mm f/2.8 @ 17 mm, 10 sec at f / 22, ISO 200 + CPL

Lastly a monochrome look at one of the B+W ND3.0 images:


NIKON D90 + 17.0-50.0 mm f/2.8 @ 17 mm, 20 sec at f / 8.0, ISO 200 + ND3.0

I like the second one, but find the sky too overpowering, bring it back a bit and I think it'd look much better! 1 is a bit dull, I think it needs some more contrast maybe.....can't put my finger on it, but a bit too grey for my likes. The 3rd for my likes is too busy. But my opinion doesn't hold much ground in here, I think you've done well!
