Dear Naomi,
Being inspired by Ansel Adams provides difficult path to follow and I want to tell you I like very much this digital photo. You should try a larger size camera and I am sure it would be even more dramatic.
Great job indeed

Naomi, if you have PS I would recommend the channel mixer: Image > Adjustments > Channel mixer (check the "Monochrome" box, and play with the red / green / blue sliders. For a red filter effect, increase red, and decrease green + blue the same amount (the sum should be about 100% again).
Or you could use a (free) PS plugin from Johny Akerlund, called Johny?s B&W, from jakerlund.net or via google search.
Or, if you come from film and like a "wet darkroom" feeling, very good is another ($$$) plugin for PS, called "Convert to B&W Pro", from theimagingfactory.
Regards
Carsten

I think the exposure in this one is much better, and the perspective compression due to the long lens adds a lot of impact.
I don't think the inclusion of the branch/bush on the lower right corner adds much to the image. Maybe it could be "burned in"?

Thanks Carsten for commenting. You made good points re: shooting color and converting to B&W. I looked at your portfolio, and you seem very talented in the digital darkroom. Any tips for converting to B&W? -- Naomi

I can see why they call it Inspiration Point. I'd love to see Yosemite National Park someday. Stunning Photo !!

This would be my favourite, without the little bush in the right corner, perhaps. There is so much drama in the sky that I would love some more contrast there. It is more advisable to shoot color and convert to B&W afterwards, IMO. The G2 makes a simple desaturation, you have much less control shooting straight B&W, and you get a jpeg, not a RAW (right ?). Anyway, a majestic landscape, I like it very much !
