Thanks, thought I would try converting the last to BW just for fun, I just added it to the post

Yeah, clouds were good, was the rain that came with them

#2 just pulls you right into the frame! Outstanding image.

I like image #2 a lot.

 

[biggstr6]

Yeah Rain can be a drag.

Great shots ... we went up there a few years ago and just happened to hit a cloudless sunny day. Stunning, it was.

Rain's fun, eh? I'm beginning to think maybe I'll just shoot everything in B&W so it can all blend in!! Is the sun every coming back?

Cheers!!

Wow Image #2 has such a nice composition!, the colours and perspective are also fantastic!!

Wonderful shots, Douglas. I think I like the color version more than the b&w. It seems kind of a shame to waste those gorgeous colors.

I added a BW since my wife didnt like the color as well. She wasnt keen on the brown dirt. Thanks Mike

I really love the 1st one

 

[Sharon]

Wow! What beauty. The second one is breathtaking. Even my daughter, who doesn't quite understand my obsession with photography and the Nikon Cafe said, "Now that is cool!"
