An eerily quiet morning on the Gulf of Mexico as I captured these dilapidated piers as two ships passed in the distance.

A black and white edited further emphasized the reflections of the pilings in the water.

Getting old, see one ship only. Nice shot. Wish it was posted at a higher res.

Thank you Bobby. The other ship is a tanker on the top left. It’s faint though. I posted this at 1600px which I believe is the highest resolution allowed. If that’s wrong, please let me know and I can post a higher res version.

Thanks for clarifying. I wasn't sure about that tanker. Cool shot.

Very well done composition Alfredo!! BW really suits this composition and subject title well!
Great tonality to coincide with the title! And YES, I missed the ships at 1st glance!

Thank you Dan! So nice of you. This is one of favorite monochrome images.

That is how I am learning to "see" Alfredo..In monochrome....it is an art!
I use the term "B&W" when actually it isn't! It is monochrome. Have to stop that!

Totally agree Dan. It’s not merely converting a color image in post. It’s about seeing the tones while in the field and knowing when monochrome works and when it doesn’t.

I was just thinking about how some of us (like me...) have had to unlearn how to see in monochrome. I started with BW film, and it wasn't until later that I did color. ;-)

Nice shot Alfredo. Has an eery ‘wasteland’ feel to it.
