Black & White

Posted by Nicholas (Shah Alam, Malaysia) on 26 March 2009 in Animal & Insect and Portfolio.

Well, he was already that colour so it made sense to convert it to B&W for this shot. I think. Taken with Nikon D90 and 70-300mm VR.

and as a follow-up from yesterday: why did you part ways with the 70-300 vr?

@paulski: Obsessed with prime lenses so I sold it for a shorter prime. The 85mm :P
