Re: Let's see your black & whites!!
Thanks! I'm glad you like it. I'm a pretty big fan of your 'Battling the Banshees' shot myself.Dancesatmoonrise wrote:Love this shot. "Moonlight, Longs, Colorado"vonmackle wrote:
Longs Peak in December
I love the sense of balance in the composition - just enough tension and just enough resolution to keep it interesting. The sky above the moon seems like the perfect amount to work with the overall composition. The summit itself is near the lower left third/third power point. Beautiful.
I love the way B&W both simplifies matters (down to composition/shapes/sizes/balance) and rather complicates issues of incorrect composition and exposure. Often, desaturating an image helps find the correct adjustments - when it can then actually go back to color if desired.
Beautiful shot, a real prize. Your experience at this is evident! Thanks for posting.

Re: Let's see your black & whites!!
These photos are incredible! I can't decide if I'm inspired to experiment more with black & white, or give up altogether...
Re: Let's see your black & whites!!
I have never been able to figure out how to upload photos on this site but here are some from Nepal
Re: Let's see your black & whites!!
Thanks Jim, I appreciate it. I took that picture of Hilltop Mill from the window of my Jeep as I drove through the Leavick site. The pic had been buried untouched in the forgotten folder with 1000s of other pics. I salvaged it for this thread and your Leavick thread. Amazing how a little "POW" can bring a photo back to life. In the past I did not enjoy editing in PP but the Nik Color EFEX filters that I recently purchased have shown me the light (or brought me to the dark side).
So from Chaco, to Longs, to Angels Landing, and from Mesa Verde to Nepal, there are a number of great photographs posted here. These are really inspiring to see. A bit of advice to some of the photographers here is to use the histogram and watch your highlights (esp in cloud and on snow) and shadows. Dial in some on-camera exposure compensation when needed.
I kind of went crazy again with the Nik filters this evening. Here are a few more pics edited using Nik Color EFEX filters in Capture NX2. Filters used include vignette, dark and lighten center, tonal contrast, glamour glow, skylight.
