    My second B&W conversion...

    This is an old photo from 2003, Sony Cybershot (full image size 887kb!), probably my favourite of all my point and shoot photos, which it was literally. Out there on this huge desolate beach on the Indian Ocean (Mozambique), this lady appeared out of nowhere and disappeared into nowhere just as suddenly - I only got this one shot, then she was gone.

    I've just done the B&W conversion (I used the B&W option in Picasa, desaturation in PS seemed to turn it really grainy?). I've left it uncropped and unsharpened. Any suggestions? I have a feeling I should crop a bit off the left side to gain a slightly better composition? Should I sharpen it a little? How's light and contrast? (There's quite a lot of haze from the sea and spray from not insignificant breaking waves)
