    I like the grayscale and how this image focuses more on texture of the clouds in contrast to the rocks.

    This looks like something you would find in a professional gallery

    Nice choice going with black and white. I love the rock outcrop on the right, gives the effect that you are high up. Nice framing and focus.

    Excellent Ansel Adam-esque photo. You have a large amount of dynamic range in this photo, despite being grayscale, which is quite beautiful. Great choices in this photo.

    Nice post processing work. I wonder how the formation of mountain wave clouds differs in Wyoming.

    This image does a great job at capturing multiple cloud formations in different levels of the atmosphere. I like the color scheme you chose for the composition and the rock structure in the bottom right also gives a good scale to the image.

    I like the overall composition of the image, the rock formation adds some additional texture. The grayscale is a great artistic touch and gives some additional detail to the clouds.

    I enjoyed the black and white to make the rocks stand in uniform with the sky. It’s a cool formation with lower fog like clouds and distinct higher clouds.

    I really like the scale that the rock formations provide to the clouds. The black and white choice was good too.

    Interesting image, I like the impact that the greyscale has on the aesthetic, it makes it look like an old photo. It also allows for the detail in the clouds to be seen with no distracting elements. The foreground nicely balances the clouds in the center left.

    I like the use of the black and white and how you kept the rock formation. It makes it a more artistic feeling than if it was just the clouds cropped.

    The way the rocks make a diagonal is adds to the piece. The grayscale in the image is a nice touch.

    Love the choice to go black & white. Sharp texture of the rocks juxtaposed with the soft texture of the clouds is really nice.

    The black-and-white makes this image really cool. The contrast between the sharp lines of the rocks and the soft clouds is really well done. Good focus and cropping.

    I like that you made this black and white, it really brings out the full range of contrasting light.

    I like the black and white, it adds to the contrast between the blue sky and the white, puffy clouds. I also like the cliffs in the foreground, it adds nice framing and depth the the image. Great composition!

    Really nice. I like the rich shape to it, it’s amazing that these things don’t disperse.

    I really like the use of the black and white. The contrast between texture of the cloud and the rocks is really nice. I like the simplicity of the cloud.
