Another awesome landscape Mel !!
Paul Vanzella
I think they are both sensational… the b/w version has more of a mystery to it – like where on earth is that landscape… however, the colour version has so much impact within the tones of the rocks and water… either or, both are magnificent… Certainly amazing work Mel!
Jeff Burns
Amazing capture Mel. They are both A+ shots. I actually am more partial to the color on this one.
gypsygirl
