I'll take the color image to be an entry that can be considered "inspired by". Very nice. Hope you don't get creamed for a risky approach to the topic.
I came extremely close to entering a color version entry, but changed my mind during the last 30 minutes. Now I sort of regret the decision. Hope this isn't getting too many low votes because I think it is a good choice.
Were Adams not so ubiquitous with the B&W Zone System I might not be so put off by a color image. I get wanting to be different, but there's a spirit of the challenge thing that goes beyond a nice vista. Nice photo but definitely a DNMC in my book.
Although Adams is known to experiment with color film, his primary works was done in black and white. Even when he did work with color, his landscapes are full of details, high tonal ranges and vibrant colors. A total opposite of your submission.
