I wanted to really capture the way I feel about my favourite place in the city of Perth. This is an island on the Swan River, right near the city, with some kangaroos and lots of beautiful birds. I love it there, but none of my kangaroo photos or anything else I tried really evoked the mood I feel as much as this black and white landscape shot.

I've been hanging my head in shame all week for the typo in my title!
I doubt very many DPC members would know it as a typo -- especially since you haven't provided the correct spelling...
I'd suggest trying to this in duotone mode, as I find that adds a real sense of depth and detail to photos like this.
Initial=lovely Composition=well done Clarity (focus, details)=very good Exposure=great tones Interesting or Emotive=I find this to be an interesting image. The tones and leafless tree gives it a lonely starkness, yet there is alot going on in the image. Nicely done.

Neat place that you live! I think the use of b/w in this photo, works well. It definitely cuts down on the color, and emits a feeling of... tranquility as you put it :) This shot is quite pleasing to the eye.... 7 - JB
excellent landscape shot... black and white works well here as it accents the foreground nicely... I also like the definition of the clouds here... good shot :) = 8 - setzler
