This is a very good b&w landscape. Voters under-appreciated it, but I can tell from the comments that many saw the strong photography effort applied. Kudos to you for ranging out of your normal genre. Well done!

Good job not losing those ubiquitous but delicate little flowers in the black and white conversion. They really stand out here.

Nice scene good sky, interesting composition - should make more a very good photo. In the end, it seems to come up a bit short. I wish I knew why and that I could offer a rationale for this opinion but I've nothing to add really.
