Just came back from our Christmas excursion to Toronto to visit family, and uploaded all the shots:

For a few of the shots I tried out the Silver Efex Pro 2 software that came with the Monochrom. It's definitely a powerful tool, but I've also discovered that it's possible to go a bit too far with the 'Efex' (you'll probably see what I'm talking about in a couple of the shots).

Most of the other shots were processed through PhotoShop RAW, and very little was done. Think I'll be tweaking those a bit, slowly but surely.

I'm no where close to most photographers on this thread but I'm discovering that I don't have to shoot wide open with the mono. 2-8-4.0 works well when you have a camera that can shoot high ISO.

Dave, I agree with Dirk your processing is fabulous, maybe some day you can share?
