Thanks Gopalji and Krishna for liking the shot, and for your comments.
The camera is not only placed there for effect, but its the same one with which the photo has been shot. Its actually a reflection on a mirror. Smile

Nicely done... It would have been nice to use second camera and take the pic. Also, for BW conversions try Silver Efex Pro plug in... You will be amazed to see the results.

Thanks again Gopalji for you inputs. Smile
Thanks Rohit for liking the shot, and also for your inputs.
Silver Efex Pro plug in is for PS. Unfortunately, I use Gimp was my PP.
Not sure if such plugin exists for Gimp.

Yeah, no plugin for gimp I am afraid! Try using Aperture or Lightroom. SEP is available for both! I do 80% of my changes in Lightroom now.. Only need PS or Gimp for high level editing...

Thanks a lot Rohit for sharing the details.
I will surely try out Lightroom or Aperture, with SEP.
