since we were staying in Curry Village, we passed this tree everyday. needless to say, I took plenty of photos of it.

Both are gorgeous, it'd be nice to see the colour originals if you shot any - mostly just for curiosity, they'd have a hard time topping these b&w's.

Both are great shots. The light in #2 is very, very nice.

Fantastic shots, Pete - both of them! Two different takes on the same general scene, each with a different mood. Shots to be proud of ...

Wow, the color versions are just as impressive. The first one almost looks selectively desaturated - the scene was so monochromatic to being with. Very nice!

Wow Pete these are great. I love the BW as well as the color versions of these shots. I can't decide which I like the best. That is a tree I have never seen. I will have to explore Curry Villiage next time we are there.
