Hi everyone,

This is my first post on this forum, so be kind! I am trying to teach myself how to use a D70s. Any comments, especially on the b&w conversion, would be greatly appreciated.

If your'e just learning the d70 then it's a pretty fine image you've posted. I guess I'd say eye contact is always a powerful element in portraits. Ask the model to look directly into the lens for a more confronting image. I think a tad more contrast would give the image a slight lift also. Thanks for sharing...I'm looking forward to seeing more portraits.

Welcome to the forum! And that's is a really nice opening post, I like the black and white treatment, and if this is one of your first shots then you are well on the way to mastering your new toy!

Thanks for the comments - I look forward to getting better and sharing more photos.

Nice effort here, definitely agree with Matt and the eye contact. I think B/W is a nice effect when used sparingly.

You've done very well. I really like this shot and B&W suits it.
