When Joe started Monochromia, he said nothing about adding textures to photos. Though some may now argue this is not, technically, a photo, it is black and white. Monochrome. So I would like to know what others think of the technique itself. Actually, I would love to know. Please be as honest and truthful- and brutal- as you want to be. This is my own private poll and might stop me from ever using a technique like this again.

Or not!

Oh yeah, the shot was taken just last week, on a cold, crisp, and very clear night in front of the Bellagio Hotel in Las Vegas.

And if you haven’t given up on me yet, please visit Photos By Emilio every now and then to say hello. Visiting hours are 9 am to 5 pm every day of the week!
