I like this in B&W, Danny. I suggest a crop from the right to eliminate the very bright clouds there. Also, you might want to experiment with brining up the mid tones in the foreground. I like the comp and the clouds.

I think I like this even better than your colored version, very dramatic. To my eye, the blacks are a little heavy but it's a beautiful scene and very nicely portrayed in this conversion.

Stood right there and watched a herd of elk laying out in the sun. The conversion is really good! I like the rising mist against the dark hills. The sky is rather busy, but still looking good. Cropping about an inch off the right side would help, thus removing the blown highlight in the clouds. :toast:

Very dramatic sky and clouds in this Danny. Looks great in B&W and I like this better than the color version. Great job on both.
