25th - Hilltop

Cleeve Common, Glos. view map

A late afternoon stroll on Cleeve Common - the sun might still have some warmth in it at the minute but the stiff northerly certainly made for a bracing walk

very nice processing to b/w. love the contrast and strong light here. framing by the trees looks very good as well. just the pose of the man can be little bit diff rant.but any way. looks amazing

Great shot !!!!

I love both this and the color version. The composition and tonality of this are superb. Moody too. Hard to choose, but then I don't needed to; I can just enjoy both.

Well, this is a real knockout of a shot. It is an amazing composition and image. Exceptional work!

You get some great sky's, excellent shadows and the little lad adds a real sence of scale to this image, well done Doug.

Good bit of work turning this into mono. The trees against the sky are just right.
Cornelis Heijkant 26-Sep-2010 09:47
Like this B&W version. More simple, more effective than the colour. Very good work.
Bill Robinson26-Sep-2010 02:20
For me, this is the one Doug, despite the colour version being as good as it is!
Carl Carbone25-Sep-2010 22:08
The color one is very nice, but this one has that extra "oomph!". Excellent. V
McGarva25-Sep-2010 21:07
Oh this is superb Doug! ... great tones and sublime light ... superb ... V

Wonderful shot and perfect in B&W. Great shadows and cloudscape and a nice portrait of a contemplative looking Finn gazing into the valley below. "V"

Very, very nice work!! V
tinkerb25-Sep-2010 20:07
Super capture works beautifully in B&W but I would love to see it in colour as well - I seem to remember you have similar stunning snowy version on New Years Day. VV
