Title: Spiral Jetty (North Great Salt Lake)
Post by: pollarda on May 16, 2016, 12:47:13 am

I shot these on the north end of the Great Salt Lake a few weeks ago and am now fine tuning the post processing ...  I would greatly appreciate any comments / feedback and / or suggestions.  The funny thing about this area is that it isn't too interesting visually when you are actually there but, when it comes to walking away with excellent photographs it creates much higher than average results.  Again C&C is totally welcome.

Thanks!

Really like these photos, very dramatic in B&W.

Excellent B&W photos. My favourites are 1 and 4; in the other ones the poles are distracting.

Me too, especially #1.
I wouldn't change a thing in the processing.

I like  3 the best... The pole speaks to time and life and suggests much more(a narrative).  The others are fine technically, but millions of these exist.

Good job… My favorite is also #1. B&W process is well done.
Bravo!
