it's greatWow fantastic photos look so real it is. amazing i'm glad i came across good profil

In black and white one wants to grab pencil and draw it as due to such magnifying effect it is easy to see every single line and also the values of black and grey. Nice work!

Yes, I can see how, to an artist, it would make it easier to draw in pencil.

Please give it a try, with your skills it will be amazing and I would love to see the result. Thank you.
