Smith Rocks and Crooked River

Smith Rocks and the Crooked River in Oregon, USA. Comments are appreciated.

Spactacular! Great photo!

Jim, Stunning image with great light! I really like your B&W treatment in this and many other of your images. Tahir.

Thank you for your positive comments. I often think that B&W doesn't show as well in this forum as color, but this is a really wonderful location for either color or B&W.

A great black and white image. I love the tones and details.

Amazing work! Just breathtaking!!!!

Amazing photography, perfect for B/W, great contrast and so so so much depth. Awesome.

A magnificent view-point to begin with...and you have captured and rendered it magnificently. Great work!

Good work

Very remarkable B&W rendition of Smith Rocks.

Very nice B&W love the contrast

This is most excellent! The luminosity is superb; and your black and white processing just couldn't be any better. Wonderful composition too. This is really a first-rate photograph! Cheers! Chris

I must say that Chris said it perfectly. So very well done, Jim.

Jim, ditto on what Chris said!  Fantastic image!  I think this is one of my favorites from your portfolio.

Jim Wonderful tones.  What program do you use to do you B/W's?  Alan

Photoshop CS3. The B&W conversion is satisfactory, but I rarely if ever use the standard filter settings; I often use 'green' as a starting point and then play with the sliders to get a look that I like.
