One of  the comments from Bob Dein on this image taken at the Great Sand Dunes National Park suggested I try it in black and white. As soon as I read his comment I knew he was on to something. So here it is. Thanks, Bob!

Wow! I really like that in black and white! I’d buy a print, for sure. 🙂
Monte Stevens
Yes, I do want to see what a print of this would look like.

Just amazing, Monte, amazing.
Monte Stevens
Thanks, Chris. For some reason the first time I worked on this image the idea of converting to black and white was not there. Someone suggested it would make a nice black and white image and they were right. So here is what I came up with. Have a super day, my friend.

Wow, that really is a stunning shot. I so enjoyed tagging along (virtually) on your trip!
Monte Stevens
Thanks, Jim. I think it would do us all a bit of good to impulsively venture out like that more often.
Bob Dein
Nice! I think that your processing adds depth.
Monte Stevens
Thanks, for suggesting it Bob. It really makes a difference.

Totally agree! Hope you have a great weekend with your baby back from the doctor. 🙂
