Really nice B&W treatment. Just the
right choice from the channel mixer. And,
those gradients combined with the DoF add so
much to the depth of the image. (ooh we are liking our fat borders now).
@Clairity: thank you! @redart: much obliged, sir ;) @Play Time: glad you like ... me too
(shouldn't say that, should I?!) @chillicheese: haha ... confession time,
Flickr's very own Sherlock Holmes: the fat
black border is to balance up the missing
finger joint I accidentally cut off ...
