This is a really interesting shot.
Yellowstone has some incredible landscapes to picture indeed, and it tends to show fantastic colors too.
It is to see how you turned those colors to black and white nicely.
This really seems like an illustration of a dream.
This is beautiful.

The Stark contrast and the black and white features work so well with the winter and baren landscape. It's quite an eery and dreamlike photo. Nicely done.

red filter? looks like it. I really dig the visual effect of having the sky darker than the ground, and yet there be perfect lighting and detail. the sharpness and contarst is excellent.

Another dreamscape - I love it. I can get lost in this one. A bit too much vignetting though I think.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
haha thanks bro
yeah upon reflection it is - but its also partly due to the different parts of the photo enhancing that effect. as in the middle is a bright white and the outside is a dark black + vignetting = LOTS of vignetting (tho it really isnt)
id dial it back a bit but.......
i dont care hahaha

All of your works seem very... Ansel-Adams-Esque.
I love it. the only thing i'd reccomend is more of a landscape feel. This just doest feel right with the vertical orientation.

honestbrutality.........
well that wasnt very brutal
i actually have a landscape and portrait shot of this same scene - but it doesnt fit when you look at how the landscape towers up and all the trees go upwards as well. It has tighter more form fitting composition in portrait shot. Everything caught on the left and right more or less takes away from the comp than adds to it
but i appreciate the critique

great shot, i love the depth of this photo. the clouds just look amazing and full of life, so great to look at. great frame up how you were on the bottom of the hill, you get to see all the landscape climbing up towards the sky. just an exciting peice. nice black and white.

wow it looks like the aftermath of a fire ... great looking shot dude
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
in fact its the aftermath of trees being coated by boiling water and high mineral contents for long periods of time.
so basically the same thing as a fire except for the wood is still there

I say this a lot of times when looking at artwork, but I really mean it here: this is gorgeous. I'm a huge fan of black and white photography and I find this piece simply stunning to look at. From the richness of tones, composition, to the stark landscape that you've caught on film - there is a lot of expression / emotion within this capture. Thank you for sharing your talented work with us!

How did you get the sky to be Black? The top cloud lump is the focal point just because of its brightness. btw. i didn't know ifyou wanted it tobe that way.

What exactly is it? You said that it is not ice, is it sand?

I love the Grey-scale and the border really brings it all together, at first I didn't really like the stuff near the bottom on the ice, but I realized it made for good contrasting and the shot is very pretty

in fact if i put my hand in it it would be burned off in a couple seconds
