Racetrack B&W - repost

Gallery: LandscapePosted January 3, 2016102 views9 comments

Additional processing of my previous post, following Harley's and Lon's suggestions. Did I go to far? Not far enough? I can appreciate a good B&W image. Producing one is a different matter. Comments/suggestions welcome!

Big improvement on the presentation on this one! It is looking real good. My vote now goes for the B&W. sad

This has more emotion and otherworldliness to it which I thought was always the point for this phenomenon. I like it and better.

Alberto,
Very nice image. This version has stronger visual impact.

HI Alberto crying

The new B&W version is better with the added contrast, but the beautiful colors in the first colored version win the medal for me cool

I prefer the previous version. Here the "light on subject" is IMHO too much direct and strong.
All the best!

Overall this is my favorite so far, Alberto. This has so much more emotion and drama associted with it although
i could see the spot light on the rock dialed back just a touch.

Oh, now you're making me hesitate about preferring the color version! Where the previous B+W looked more like a desaturated version of the color version, this one looks like a genuine B+W!

Cool shot, and otherworldly. Great artistic presentation too.
