Lone Boojum
The sun was just breaking out and I pulled over to take off my jacket somewhere south of Lake Chapala. That lone boojum looked like a BW shot.

Ken - This is perhaps my favorite picture of yours from this trip South.
It has the look of a postcard from long long ago. Well done!

Looks like a antique painting..... oil on Canvas.....nice.
Old people are like the old cars, made of some tough stuff. May show a little rust, but good as gold on the inside.

Love that picture. BW has its purpose and you used it wisely.
The grass is always greener....
and so, there is always a better spot in Baja

Thanks all for the comments.
Leo,
You are absolutely right. I find about one out of a hundred captures suitable for a BW conversion.

Perfectly taken photo. It has the look of a prehistoric landscape millions of years ago.
