Ah Shi Sle Pah Wildness

[BlackRockArt]

Hi y'all

I still don't know how to pronounce the name correctly, so every time I talk to the locals, my voice level drops 2 notes. But man, this place is a photographer's dream world.

As soon as I saw the landscape, I had a black-and-white vision in my head; with the approaching storm clouds from the East, the sky was filled with dark clouds.

That's super cool Oliver! I am not 100% sure on how it's pronounced either. I think B&W really fits this as those clouds compliment the mood of the ground so well.

Nice job of thinking in B&W for this capture - the result worked out quite well. Beautiful contrasts.

Thanks Jim. The area has multiple layers of soil and rock in white, brown, black, yellow, red ... it makes sense to do a black-and-white conversion. There are many petrified tree trunks, barks and stumps which were quite amazing.

Thanks Alan, part of the wildness is covered in coal, which tells me the area once were tropics or forest.

Thank you Ken, it's spot just next to the egg hatchery.
