I may have broken the rules slightly.
When I use lightroom to edit the photos that we have taken together I will often save a ‘preset’ edit if I think it may be useful in the future. That way I don’t forget how I edited an image next time, as I have often done. I named this preset Cream Dream as it has given littlegem a nice creamy tone. However I didn’t want to take away the bright shiny green silk lingerie she is wearing too. So therefore it isn’t truly a monochrome image.
A black and white version to appease the purists, but I think the colour version is preferable.
I agree, the color version is really striking with the green in it. Great image!

Thank you Marie ☺️
She looks very dreamy – lovely photo as always
Thank you ☺️
You’re right. There is not much green, but it is kind of dark and crushes a little. Which is not felt on the monochrome version. The littlegem is of course beautiful in both shots.
The colored version is more consistent with the title. And it looks more interesting and informative.
It looks warmer in a color photo.
I concur. Color captures more in this case.
I see a devilish gleam in her eye and a come hither wish for whomever is in her gaze.
