The ground cover at Olympic NP's Beach 1 has always held a fascination for me. I decided to go low and close on it on this trip and work it's lines and textures in B&W. Does it work for you?
Wow, that is very unique - Never visited this beach yet but I need to see this myself !!

Works for me. One minor suggestion would be to blend two exposures with complementary polarizer adjustments to deal with the glare in the upper left portion. B/W is a great idea on this one - very nice!
Nice shapes and textures and the B&W conversion looks good. I really like this.

This is great Don. I saw some of these plants at Heceta Head on Saturday and was commenting to my girlfriend how nice a closeup photo of these would be, but passed them by.
I like how the center of each leaf originates from an opposite corner of the photo. The texture here is awesome, too.
Thanks, Mike. The beautiful green is what first attracts you but when you look closer you see the shapes and textures. I wish that I knew the name of the plant, though.
