Pete!
Happy Halloween indeed. Great tonal range and I like how you have made the tree stand out. If you look carefully the tree has it two largest limbs reaching outward to the viewer drawing you into the image. |

Good catch on the yellow color and resultant effect. I'll try that... |

GM Haru,
Thanks for the detailed commentary. Yes, the color version does has a "directionality" of light and guides the eye. Difficult to do sometimes in a B&W conversion and that is the one concept I was concerned about with this image... |

Very Strong Geometry (triangles) Haru and agreed-not boring. I agree with Melissa in terms of having the sky tones more of a gradient like the color image. Personally I would like to see more from this location, especially on the right.
The other feature of your image that I like is a theme I've played with and that is "tenacity of life". I mean you have foliage growing "out of the rock" on the left! |

Very Nice capture Stacey.
It is more difficult to compose these huge Oaks than one might imagine. Studying the lighting helps this a lot. We were in Charleston one year and had an opportunity to shoot their famous Oak, Angel Oak, and tripods were not allowed as well being very crowded! I agree with Melissa and slight dark vignette will draw the eye more to the tree center. |

Thanks Melissa,
I will try that center mountain edge and see how that works. And, I agree with the size contrast between the buildings and the glacier, hence my naming the image"Relativity"...Controlling all of the tones was a challenge. |

Thank You Stacey!
Yes it was a magical moment when the sun peaked through the clouds and lit up the scene. Looking at all the comments thus far, I decided to include the road and buildings to keep, as you said, the context and give the image a sense of scale. However, a little darkening to not take away from the glacier tones seems appropriate. |

Hey Pete,
Thanks for the modifications on the image. It is more focused on the glacier and the mountains w/out the road in the foreground. Noticed the darker cloud texture as well.
Very moody now. |

Thanks-I'll check it out. It could be the contrast as well due to the very bright and dark boundary on that mountain ridge. I do print in large format sometimes and I have seen that happen... |

Happy Halloween! Nice capture of the season activities. Good tonal range given the conditions-remove/vignette/darken/that upper left corner? |

Very nice perspective and composition. Can you darken the bridge and the sky as it is a bit bright and takes away from a lovely image. |

Actually I think it is a nice rendition as is. Love B&W plants to show structure and geometry! |

Thanks Ed for your comments. I'll have to look at that front range edge to be sure. In terms of "front range" which side left or right? |
