Dreamy Slot Canyon

Something a little different than what I’ve been posting about the slot canyons: here’s a dreamy image of the lower Antelope Canyon slots. The texture and shades are phenomenal in these black and white images of the slots.

North Window Number 2

Another image of North Window, looking directly at Elephant Butte. Same day, same general spot as yesterday’s post and image, but this time more of the evergreen tree in the frame. Plus I present both the original color version along side a black and white version below.

Below is an alternatively processed version of the same image above. I love the black and white version for its contrastiness and pop, whereas the color version above seems bland and lacking that special pop I normally like to see in my landscapes.

What are your thoughts or preferences? Do you like the black and white version or do you still like the original color version? Why?
