Manually Toned

I'm trying a new technique and would appreciate comments.

A great photo, but personally the yellow tone does nothing for me! I would prefer to see what looks to be great tonal qualities in B&W!

Thanks for the comment. The idea came from a mix of Tone Mapped images that a great photographer uses on his industrial images. I also wear "Amber" tinted sunglasses and wanted to recreate some of the effect of the colour shift that they give. I too like the "Pure" B&W and I think you are right that this will look better that way.

But trying new ideas is half the fun and getting feedback is the other half, so many thanks for that.

Mmmm - difficult one this. Especially as we enjoyed your first undressed image. This almost works for me but your model head is just too far back interrupting her curves.

I agree I love the composition but please can we see in b&w? I think it would be even better then
