It is a fantastic photo but I am not sure about the BW. Any chance we could see the colour version?

Both versions have their strengths, but for me, the B&W version is more powerful and timeless...
cheers,

B&W works really well in some landscapes, as this great example demonstrates

I agree...

For me, B&W is more about textures, shadows and moods. That is why I went with the B&W version

Very beautiful

Thank you.

You think so? Your comment made my day. I'm a big fan of Ansel Adams and have studied his work intensively but, when I was setting up for this shot I wasn't consciously going for the "Ansel Adams look". It just sort of came out that way (much to my surprise and delight). Again, thanks for your comment.
