RMNP

It's been over a month since I created the time to go shoot. And so Sunday I drove to RMNP to pursue my favorite activity. Since the sky didn't light up I worked on this image for b&w since the monotone environment struck me as a good candidate for this sort of interpretation.

Comments and suggestions welcome.

Thanks,

AE, I think this is the first BW image I have ever seen of RMNP. Interesting. It has good depth and the mountain, presumably Long's is a little centered. I'd probably increase the contrast a little more.

Art, that looks fantastic
i wouldn't touch a thing. presumably that was shot late in the day and the lighting looks quite natural. you got me psyched to get out the next few weeks.

This is really beautiful.

The scene is remarkable, with a lot of interesting elements and graduated lighting adding to the image. It's an interesting - and effective - composition. It's so tempting to zoom in more on Longs Peak that I don't think I've ever seen this wide of a shot from here. I think Bill's suggestion of working with the contrast could take it up one notch higher even. It's obviously a matter of personal taste, but if this were mine, I would try to bring some contrast out of the krumholtz on the right, enhance the contrast in the foreground rocks, and (possibly) Longs.

Nice shooting!

Very nice! The foreground looks a bit like a moonscape. Cool!
