Idalia CO

This is at the site of the old Bonny Reservoir. Colorado had to drain it after a lawsuit by Kansas accusing them of not honoring a 1942 pact and retaining too much water. Colorado is now looking at making this a wildlife refuge.

I thought it only proper to portray this in B&W

Stunning. Sad about the reservoir. My family and I used to go camping and boating out there. Got rocked by some really nasty weather a couple of times, too!

An amazing image of this refuge, I agree with Helen and you did a great work. V

I think your choice of B&W was the right one. Light is excellent; at first I almost thought it was an IR image with the contrast between light and dark! But it works very well for this lovely scene.
