This is what B&W photography is all about for me. Beautiful silvery tones, interesting composition and abstract lines. I only wish I could see it in a print.

i love much of your work but just not connecting with this one. My eye keeps wanting to see more of the top left and tree.

I am surprised to see this was from Kenya. Looks like glacial river carving found in New England. Nice find and beautiful tonal renditions.

This one has a nice abstract feel to it, wonderful job on the conversion.

Wonderful B&W Stuart. The tonal range and abstract nature make this interesting for me as well as the imagery..

The tortured shapes give this a uneasy feel. The b&w looks fine. :cool:

What a lovely and throught provoking photograph. There is so much going on and on top of that your excellent presentation makes it a thrill to study.

Nice contrast. I wonder what a close crop of either the top or bottom might look like? Both seem compelling in themselves.
