B&W to Play With (or colour if you want)

I took this last spring but could never get a colour image that I liked so this is what I finally settled on. This image CC BY-NC-SA 4.0.

I think BW fit this landscape really good and the compo is great. Congratulations.

Autobalance and Local Variance Normalization for the most part. Did have to do some sky color tweaks (and thought about just replace the blown out parts but did not). Had to stop somewhere. Wonder how Ansel decided when to stop? lol

A postcard perfect picture. What could be better than to make in bright and crispy like spring
