taken on the Hellcat Dunes trail at the Parker River National Refuge on Plum Island in Massachusetts. I just love the mad tangle of branches all over and then the ordered serenity of the walkway.

That's cool and love the B&W conversion but it looks like chaos in chaos to me!

Cool image. I like how the walk leads calmly and smoothly away from the chaos of the stairs and branches.

glad i didn't delete. Wonderful image and conversion!
I'm not sure if you ever play w/selective colouring but when i saw this I thought to myself that the stairs and path might look interesting coloured lightly and slightly.
Looks great as it is mind you - just wanted to exercise my fingers a bit - lol.

I do occasionally, but hadn't thought of it for this image. Here's a post on what I did do with it though - Black and White Photography 201 « Wicked Dark Photography (http://wickeddarkphotography.com/2011/03/16/black-and-white-photography-201/)

That's a cool image. Love that chaos and the BW processing. Makes me want to go down those stairs and along the path (boardwalk)

I feel pretty crappy about it. It was me not understanding what LR would do. Bummer since it had hundreds of views and dozens of comments and favorites.

Wow, missed this first time around. Lovin' this one WD, really draws you into the frame and the detail is excellent.

thanks guys. I've never been to that park during the summer, but maybe I'll go back.
