I was told this morning that the cylinder image should be in black and white, so with a bit of work, here's my version in B&W. Note that this wasn't a trivial conversion - tonalities that work in colour don't in black and white and so you have to edit the image all over again - and it isn't any simple increase in contrast - local editing is necessary for the best result.
Look back at the previous post which also included an unedited version of the image - now you have an idea of how much work goes into making a good black and white print.
By the way, I have just printed this on Crane Museo Silver Rag - so far the only semi gloss real paper worth considering - despite hopes for the Innova papers. The print is very nice.

For me, this works better in colour. there are subleties of shade, colour & metallugy tha just aren't conveyed by a black and white rendition. On the other hand, maybe that's just the engineer in me coming out.
I second the comment by orcasmac. Curious as to how you took that flat image and rendered it as "round" as shown.
I like the B&W version much better.
