Beautiful lines and shapes -- what great trees up there at the top of the ravine. I wish there were starker contrast, though, especially in the foreground.
the way the D&B was done makes this look unnatural to me, there seems to be a light outline around the trees interupting the clouds, and the light parts near the bottom are too light, however you found great subject matter and got the exposure, the depth of field, and the tonal range right; this might do well, GL
Wonderful work. An excellent choice of subject and very Adamsy black and white processing. Your sky looks a little false since you appear to have burned it by hand and left quite a halo around the trees and edges of the frame. Quite an attractive effect but not especially faithful to the scene. The sky might have been brought up with a coloured filter in shooting or a hue shift layer in post processing. Either way, one of the strongest entries I've seen so far. 9
