Spectaular! No criticism whatsoever.

Lovely Alex, and the light through the clouds and patchwork patterns of the fields certainly make this an effective B&W photo.

Awesome shot. I really like shots where light is peeking through clouds. Very nicely done here
What does colour look like?

Never thought a panoramic view can look so good in B/W, love the detail and contrast

[asolie]

Thats what i call a high view,nice countryside.
The sun seems to play games with light on the ground,good catch Alex.

You're a genius! A realy luminous B&W conversion!

Mike I know what you mean, but once you start to actually look you notice things you didn't before ;)

Super image, Alex.
I love the play of light in the valley.

Are we looking to the south in this image, Alex ?

Thanks Cameron.
Your spot-on, it was taken facing south. This is the side that they do the paragliding from.
Have you been up there your-self?

Not yet but I'm hoping for some decent weather in January.
Maybe even some snow....make a change from rain. :)

I know what you mean mate, I would rather have snow than rain any day :).
Mind the thermals then, it can get pretty rough up there:confused:

[Big_B]

Wow. I'm blown away

[Raindancer]

What an absolute cracker......... lovely contrast and B&W conversion.......:)

[AdamJL]

Love this picture. I've been experimenting with B&W a bit more recently, and this will just drive me to continue.
Great result, thanks for sharing.

[zander303]

I really appreciate all the comments.
B&W is great when the light is poor, as you can dodge and burn and make the image more dramatic.

Cheers.

Spectacular!

The way the light comes down through the clouds is amazing!
