I shot this colorful rock face two years ago and didn't think much of it, ever after converting to black & white. However, all along I knew there was something more to be brought out. However, after putzing with it using the Nik Silver Efex plugin, I think I nailed it with a rather nice range of tones. But to be honest, the original photo had a boring clear blue sky. So, I applied a sky from Luminar 4 and converted it to black & white too. Ken
Dang, only now do I see the speed limit sign near the bottom left. I'll get rid of that.
That’s nice black and white work, Ken!
An excellent job. Love the contrast and the work you did on the sky really pushes the photo to the next level. Mahalo for sharing.
Excellent! The sky is nice. I wouldn't have thought it was an addition until you mentioned.

Stopped in Sedona some years back and I can see the reds in that.
Nicely done, Ken. Love the B&W and the sky addition. Thanks for sharing it.
Very nice photo. Good tonal range.
Nicely done. But being an aficcionado of our crystal blue skies, I'd like to see the original.
The effects that you added are great. Because I don’t have appropriate software I limit myself in b& w photography
Beautiful shot!

What sign???? Haahahaa. I didn't see it until you made me. That Nik Silver is a winner for B&W work.
I would put that on my wall in an instant.
