Glencoe Mood

One of my favourite photo spots in gritty and mean mood,a very

typical day in the Highlands

It is indeed a great subject and a classic view.  The B & W is becoming for the low cloud, and I like the chosen shutter speed for the water. When I visited this spot last autumn the stream was an absolute torrent. It never occurred to me to convert the shots I took to B & W .......hmmm worth a thought. Did you use any HDR processing here, the sky looks a bit heavy?

Very well done Douglas, it conveys the mood superbly.

Great work. Regards.

The richness of the B&W tones does it mostly, of course, there are interesting and beautiful elements of the composition too!

Best regards Douglas!

This is a very strong image and depicts very well the mean, gritty mood you described.  It does have an HDR look to it, but perhaps that's just the result of local contrast adjustments.  B&W allows us to concentrate just on the forms, and they are very dramatic.  Very nicely done.

Superb B & W landscape. Love the wide-angle perspective and low angle of view. Well done.

This is an excellent monochrome image, where the texture of the many natural elements is almost palpable.

I especially like the dark clouds and the rock in the foreground.
