Description

I photographed this scenic landscape along Utah Route 9 driving from east to west (and a bit south as well). This scene jumped out at me, luring me to it. I pulled over to the side of the road, set up my camera and made a number of exposures in and around this spot. This image stood out from the pack, after all part of the art of photography is the selection of one or two exposures from a series to work further on. As I was working on this image the idea that it should be printed in black and white emerged. The topographic layering, the sparse trees, the two hills in the background and the high clouds are all features that seem to demand the monochrome approach. This image is the result of the process of selecting and editing as one creates a photograph.

I processed the raw image file shot with a Canon 60D with an 18-55mm IS lens using Photomatix Pro 5, filters from Topaz Labs including Detail 3, BW Effects, ReMask 4 and DeJPEG 4 as well as some minor tweaking in Photoshop including sCurve adjustments, brightness, saturation and the camera raw filter to produce this Black and White HDR image.
