A stand of aspen trees in a local nature reserve. I thought I'd try my hand at B&W.

...and a crafty hand indeed! I like the hint of sky in the background, seen through the trunks of barren trees. The black and white works very well in the setting of the mood. Steve, very good picture and best wishes to you in the contest! ~~ John

Great DT, love the contrast point you've chosen and the simplicity takes something mundane into a deliciously abstract realm.

It is not "The powerful attack the weak." it is "The fearful attack what they fear."

Steve - The strong contrast, side lighting, and b/w gives this a harsh edgy feel. Thad

I like the silvery shine of the aspen trees and I like the lines they create in this lovely b&w. Great photo and work.
Good luck in the contest!

I think you did pretty good here! Aspen look great in color or B&W
I like the depth as well as the shadows. A great shot!

Last night I lay in bed looking up at the stars in the sky and I thought to myself, where the heck is the ceiling.

Wow I love the white bark on the trees how it highlights the image giving it a good balance for B&W

Great B&W photo! Those trees are my 2nd favorite next to the sad willow trees. :) Great work!
