One of the many wonders in Northern Australia are mangrove trees. When the tide goes out they have the most interesting root system. I have tried and tried to take a good photo of these trees with great lighting and the such. Was always a miss. Had to put up with a lot of bug bites in amongst the mangroves in my quest to photograph them.
One day playing around in Photoshop I turned one into a black and white version.
I liked it. So I did another one. Looked better.
And then my favorite photo of all. Nailed it.
What do you think?
Let me know.

Wow these photographs are truly amazing. I really wonder how the actual photograph would have looked because the transformation that has come out after this black and white effect is really fantastic. Do share the original pic as well. Everybody would like to see it. Keep doing the good work.

That is not at all a problem. We all have priorities and I like that you take care of your little one so much. Good to see that your priorities are the one with your little one. Take care of him. I also wish he gets back to full of his health as soon as possible. Wish him get well soon from my side. Take care. :)

Hi Nikita,
just wanted to share this with you first. My daughter is getting better from her serious infections. This is her best friend, Teddy. He is so patient and gentle with her. But I have seen him protect her also, and I got scared. 2 peas in a pod these 2.

Wow... I mean, you've made me feel so so so special. I'm so happy that she is recovering. And I really hope that she gets all the happiness she deserves. And sure, her best friend teddy too. Thanks so much for sharing so much with me. This is how we connect to people. I am really feeling so good and all thanks to you.
Can we be friends on Facebook too? It's totally up to you. :)
Have a fantastic day.
