Converted to B&W, resized and cropped. Adjusted levels. That's about it. I'll say it now, even though nobody'll be able to read it until after the vote, I double dare someone to tell me this is either to subtle for the challenge or that it isn't really black and white. *grin*

For those who are interested, Grevy is the name for the kind of zebra pictured. I wanted to use the zebra's name, but couldn't track down the information.
I'm not sure . . . I think this one would look better in color! J/k. To be honest, I can't make up my mind about this one. It's a great b&w subject, an interesting composition, technically ok, but for some reason I can't pinpoint why I'm not excited about it. I think it's just a tad too busy for me. No points deducted for my indecision though.
Really nice, you win. Sorry, but I have no constructive remarks. Strong black w/good contrast. (Isn't the subject already in b&w? Doesn't that count?) Photo 10 Creativity 10 B&W 10 total (what else?) 10
I can't really think of a better subject for a black and white challenge... This is a really great photo.. these lines are dazzling to my eye and I am proud to give this photo a 10 this week... nice work!
NIce composition. I would have given this a 10 if the focus had been on the eye rather than the hide. (I imagine this is the AF feature at work.) Nice tonal range, Maybe jst a touch flat, looks like its about 8 zones, 9 zones would add a bit.
Of course, we're not all lucky enough to have a spare Zebra wandering around our back garden:-) Cropped really well, Super subject matter. really captures the challenge criteria.
