A couple nights ago, I was messing around in Photoshop with converting some old color photos to black and white. I really like how this one turned out. I took this picture on a hike in the Shenandoah in 2002. I drove along Skyline Drive and stopped at a random trail to do a daylong hike just after the Autumn colors had peaked. In the color photo, there is a nice variety of colors down in the valley in the distance. Without the color, I like how the bronze compass becomes real focal point of the photo.
