Rockface

Shot on a cloudy day late in the evening. Quality of light was poor but the shapes and contours of this enormous rock were so impressive so I decided to convert the photo into black and white and I have to say that I like this much more than the original colour version.

Thank you Guntars.

Thank you very much. Often when one is not quite satisfied with colours but the photo has "something in it" it makes sense to convert it into bw or seepia or whatever, take a different approach and see what one can make of it. This was one of those cases. pekka.

Human or Ape?

Reminds me of a blind folded man looking up with a cartoon gorilla head coming out of his neck.
