B&W's Inspired by Ansel Adams

I met the master of black and white landscapes in the early 1970's after
a lecture/slide presentation he gave at Fullerton College near where I lived in California.
At the time I was taking my first photography courses and wasn't even into B&W's. After seeing his work I was completely sold and in awe of his classic works.
Through the decades since, I found myself attempting to inject some of his 'look' into my own B&Ws.

Sooo much beauty here! The intense b&w pics add a fantastic mysterious element to them as well. VV

I saw your Forum post, questioning whether people still like black and white. Well, I do! Many of these images are phenomenal, I really like the toning. You clearly have learned a lot about dynamic range and composition from Ansel adams. Keep up the good work
