Point Reyes Lighthouse in B&W

Point Reyes, California

After we left San Francisco, we took a scenic route to Napa Valley which included a stop at Pt. Reyes
Lighthouse. We didn't realize at the time that Point Reyes is only open on certain days, another thing
we didn't know is that Pt. Reyes is the windiest place in North America and the second most foggy
place in the US. Well, the lighthouse was closed, but luckiest for us, it was fog-free. This image was
taken from the overlook at the top of the bluff.

I converted this to B&W using the channel mixer in PS--comments and feedback on the conversion
always welcomed and appreciated.

This image works very well in B&W. Good decision!
