Stormlight at Sunset, White Sands National Monument, New Mexico

Chris, excellent choice with this one for B&W. I love the contrast and dramatic clouds. Well done. Todd

Chris....Great POV on the impressive scene ancchored by the well lit plant in the lower left!Super sky to top it all which tells me this must also be impressive in color.I like this one for my Favorites folder!Bravo et salutations-Laurent

Excellent!

First, I want to thank Todd and Laurent for their very kind comments. Very much appreciated.

 

I still wish like hell I'd not clipped the top of that cloud at right-center. I obviously got kind of caught up in the moment of the dramatic, but rapidly fleeting, lighting conditions and did not carefully review the composition as I was photographing it. The color version is also very nice, a completely different visual experience. From my perspective it seemed to sing most clearly in black and white.

 

Thanks for the visit and comments,

 

Chris
