One of the first successful images taken with my new Leica M10 Monochrom. I'm very happy with this image. It fills me with a sense of adventure and puts butterflies in my stomach. But to be fair, most mountain scenes do that to me anyway. (-;

Masterful. There is an eye behind this image which combined compositional elements to perfection. Shapes, tones, and processing makes the special look spectacular here. Great work Dennis
i absolutely love how this seems like two environments or even three .. interesting how differently ppl see things ..
i felt the butterflies too .. its just so magnificent this image ..
and its like a wonderful story ..
the road beckoning us onwards .. towards the lush forest and mountains ..
AND THEN THE CLOUDS . !!!! .. they are just plain awesome ..
this pic blows me away .. congrats on top ten .. altho i feel it should have ribboned ..
but like i say .. interesting how differently ppl see things .. :)
Great B&W tones and great landscape. But it almost feels like two separate images, one the road with trees below and the other the trees, mountain and sky above. Would a lower viewpoint of a different framing resolve that?
I love everything but the road running out of the frame before it (sort of) turns back in. Given the square crop I don't know what you started with, but the processing is wonderful. I just might have sacrificed a bit of the sky and pulled up from the bottom a bit. Really good. Could have been a ribbon for me.
