This photo gave me a lot of shades of grey
This is a photo of my wife with an African grey parrot and it is the first I have done that gave me this many shades of grey.

That's a nice picture Dave. Seems you got the settings dialled in.
Cheers and well done, Paul
Really a nice picture. Can you share your setting and which kind of wood pls.
Is the result smooth or like a relief?
The picture was imported at 381 dpi.
Resolution = 15 Pixel/mm
Color to Grescale conversion = 0.21R+0.71G+0.07B
Greyscale Resolution =256
Engraving Speed = 928
$30 = 2000
$28 = 0
The result is about as smooth as can be had from an engraving but feels rough of course - definitely not a relief.
This was engraved on 1/8 inch Baltic birch plywood and it is a 4x6 inch print.
Here is another example with the same settings as my last post. The gerbil engraving even shows the clouds.
