These first five pictures are from Utah either in or around Uintah National Forest. I spent many days of our vacation going to different waterfalls and such. Isaac was a trooper and even finished one of the hikes with a huge blister on his heel.





In the previous post, Melinda showed y'all some pictures of Ofu. It's one of the outer islands in American Samoa. I was there for a three day environmental discoveries camp for kids but had to spend about 7 days due to the flight situation. So I had a lot of time to hike along the coasts and summitted Ofu mountain with the superintendent of the National Park Service here, Mike.







Just to show you that greens are interesting I took a BW picture of this coconut log and then a color photo because the color is unreal.

Eph. I very much like the experimenting. After looking through, I'd say that the photos that have a lot of different textures (like the second and fourth shot in the Utah series) work really well in B&W. On the other hand, that first shot in the Ofu series doesn't quite do it for me in B&W because the trees, mountains etc. are far enough away that they run together and really need color to separate the entities. Your framing is really creative and you've got a good eye. Seems like highly textured shots are best with black and white. Love the shells in the rock.
