Like it very much, katu. Your processing made a great B&W.

Great picture - inspires me to try B/W conversion. Well framed with the tree in focus at the top and the misty look far away.

Actually, some other have pointed out several imperfections that I am going to take care of. I'm glad you enjoyed it.

I can't take all the credit. Software was a big help.

I visited the Grand Canyon in 2014 for the first and only time. I took hundreds of photos and published a 120 page Blurb book of my South Rim adventure. Like many of us, I am now revisiting old photos to see if perhaps I missed a quality shot during my initial editing. This photo was underexposed and was totally lacking visual interest. However, will a some cropping and conversion to B&W I think I found a new expression of the scene. My processing was also enhanced by filtering through the Nik Collection Silver Efex Pro.

The photo was taken with a Canon 5D MkII with a 24-105 mm L lens. This camera has long since been replaced by a Panasonic GX8 with very satisfactory results.

Looks very near to any one of Ansel Adams works.

I think you have been inside too long. My name and his do not belong in the same library let alone the same sentence.

Do you know what makes me happy? If you look at earlier posts you will see the original photo. The fact that I created this pic out of what was a total reject makes me feel good.

I like the photo. On DDL I notice there may be some slight softness and several dust spots, but those do not detract from the single download. Overall, I see good contrast, good detail and a very nice view of a place I've never visited. I also see it as a well composed and interesting photograph. Again, I like it very much.

Great shot and great re-work and re-framing, George. You know that I am not that keen on B&W photography but this one works very well! Well done and keep them coming.
