In this last image taken with this combination I felt that a dull, cold, gray, rainy winters day deserved the same dort of image (note the lack of contrast within the image). This is the sort of image I'm not to keen on. For me a B&W image must have contrast and real blacks to it. Monochrome images must be dynamic, have lots of contrast with shadows and form defining what the image is about.

But on the day I took this above image, I felt exactly like the image looks...flat!
