I like this grouping of rock formations, Rick. The way the layers are angled can lead nicely into the frame. I think you have chosen nice elements and presented them well. Is this also from arches? Good job!! Chet

Nice rock formations. The B&W choice works very well with this scene. I am finding the wall on the right a bit dominant. I might consider burning it a bit to deemphasize it?

Really nice conversion, Rick. The b&w allows the light, shadow, and forms to come through.

Good choice on the b&w here Rick. It think it works well showing off the shapes of these rocks. The dark sky works good here too!

Very nice scene Rick with very nice elements in it. I like the dark sky and your choice of B&W. I agree with Harley on the rock face being a bit bright but this is very nice as is. Well done.
