Zabriskie Point in Death Valley, California. Taken september 2005. I thought the subject demanded b/w-conversion due to the strong pattern of rocks.

Lovely detail and texture in the rocks which as you say works well as a B&W which the action has done quite well

Looks like something Weston might have done. The B&W works wonderfully here!

Your intuition for bw is perfect for this shot as the valleys adn crevasses lend themselves well to contrast and light. I almost long to see this picture in color to appreciate the different hues of the sands.
