5th Place
* Artificial Jungle

Ontario Science Center maintains this micro jungle habitat. It is extremely humid and hot. Going back to the air conditioned building caused quite a bit of condensation on my 20D.

Thank you guys... I certainly did not expect this shot to be liked so much.
Cindy, this is actually pretty monochrome in itself. The green was not that lush and the sun's light is white (it was noon). As you can see I got the sun in the frame so there is some contrast loss due to flare here. I could post the color original for you to see but my intent for this one was B&W from the start.

Love it! But can't help but imagine it with deep greens and golden light beams . . . Cindy

I agree with Traveller, this is stunning. I'm also liking the wide variety of grey tones in the conversion. Congrats. -Michael
