This image is not posted for compo but for opinion on the conversion to BW from somewhat subdued color in the original.

Please look at her jacket and tell me what you think.(maybe less highlights as I edit words here on the posted image!) Sure, maybe something more in her hair would help but the cloth looks ok to me on the jacket. Any suggestions?

I am getting more into BW lately, a phase I will deal with and it is not an easy one! Saturated color masks a lot and the BW is not so easy to do well. Agreed?
This one started pretty unsaturated to start with little contrast. Maybe you are a lot more advanced than me..let me know something.

Thanks a huge southern bunch, like banannas. Take a thanks a day from the bunch. TomDart.
