B+W sunset

Taken in Columbia Bottoms Conservation Area in Missouri.

All comments welcome

I am surprised why many of your photos do not  receive more comments, most of them do deserve appreciation, like this one here. Good old fashioned B/W with great mood and tonality range, depicting very nicely the solitude of the place and the bare tree. I also like your image on the cave. Well done!

Hi Robert,  You have created a most artistic image by visioning and handling a simple, but powerful scene well.  Terrific utilization of light and reflections.  I tinkered with this a bit, not because I think my rendition is better, but to illustrate how different the mood message of an image, especially B&W, can change with small adjustments.  I added a bit more sharpness and increased the contrast some.  Your version has a soft and effective mood; my modification is more crisp and punchy.  Both are excellent.  Thanks for sharing your fine work.   Larry

Robert,  The differences with my tinkering just don't show up here with such a small image.  

Wonderful light. I'm really moved by the picture.

Very dramatic. The b&w works very well to set this shot up. Nice composition, good use of light, good capture of the reflection. - Charles
