Butte & Moon B&W

I tried a B&W conversion of the full moon coming up over a butte near Buffalo Creek Wildlife Management Area. B&W conversion in Lightroom 4. Thanks for your comments and critique.

Richard,

I certainly like this. Nice shapes and I also like the detail you brought out in the mountain. I like the mood as well.

I like the mood you snagged here Richard, the B&W conversion really adds character. Well done!

Great concept, here, Richard. You might try brightening up the moon a bit and selectively sharpening it a bit more. I like that you did get some detail in the mountain. B&W works very well.

Richard, I like your comp and the mood of this image is very nice. I too like that you have some detail in the butte and the moon is like I was right there looking at it.
