Thank you for looking !!

AE,

Wow, this is very interesting. I think it's quite dramatic, but that it also looks a tad processed.

I really like the mountains and the sky. There seems to have some sort of PP effect there, but it's possible that it does not.

The field is OK in its own right, but this is less believable... It pushes the boundaries beyond the maybe PP'd to almost definitely.

So was it processed?

I also would like to see an animal or two in the bottom left or whatever, or even an old fence. The foreground is just so barren. Makes the photo seem lonely.

Well, this is what I like about this place -- everybody usually has a different way of looking at things! Whether you did or did not PP, it has an artistic feel to it that I like. I also like the fact that the foreground and the sky are just interesting enough to look and see if you can find something there, but then my eye moves on to the delight of the mountains. Very nice!

Another local scene I have yet to discover.
Love the b/w...makes it seem all the more cold and desolate.

Was it processed?

I shoot primarily RAW. So, it's processed

Have to admit, sometimes I'm a bit too aggressive :blush2: I do agree that perhaps the foreground could use...a horse may be

Here's one that's more... "natural"



I've read that a black and white photo by default is not a reflection of reality. So, process it in whatever way you like it to look

Thank you for the comments, folks !!

great photos !!
I usually do not like b/w :blush2: btut these are great

and i like the first one better

I would not add anything to the foreground because the tree stumps says it all for me. The desolation leading you into the mountains being pushed down by overbearing clouds. A stunning B&W landscape.

One minor change I would consider is loosing the top black cloud by cropping to the top of the layer underneath it. Need to see that as a pic before commiting to the crop.

I prefer your first,(processed shot). I thought about whether you should have something in there but think Roger is right. If there is a way to make those dead heads stand out more it might help.

[Greg McCary]

I find the dead blown over trees very interesting. If you could I think you should get closer and maybe make one the subject of the shot. The sky is almost taking away from the beauty of the mountains, I think you should crop some of the sky out. I like the second one better and I also think a web sized image doesn't do this justice.
