Does this work? B/W enchanted forest with Spanish Moss
What I mean is:
Do these images tell enough of a story so you don't want the color?

Not sure what the story is, but it's kinda spooky.

2. Spooky means it's working. Black and white a bit more than color, but in that
forest I came across the wild boars, black and brown, with fangs and babies, the vulchers at the edge of the forest, and then there were deer that kind of looked vigilant if you know what I mean....
I also have itchy hives all over my neck and arms. Just sayin'.....
Spooky is a good start for feedback and I thank you MR HarveyDarkey

3. Love that second one
All that amazing texture!

The first one doesn't really have a spot to focus on, which might be corrected in color... or not. But all the others work fine.

4. THANKS what a fascinating comment, because the first one, to me, is my favorite.
To me it feels like all that Spanish Moss is just rolling down and enveloping me.
The one I thought was the one that worked.

I'm glad I asked, and will look for more feedback.

8. Ditto on the second one
I see a GIANT hairy spider hiding in there.

5. I haven't been able to identify it
but there's a very slight crop for the first one would that would really make it sing. I love it as is, being a wide-angle enthusiast, but somehow it needs to be honed down just a little.

But do these work? Hell yeah, they work. They work good.

7. Thanks friends for your comments. I'll work on these a bit over the holiday
and try again. I find Spanish Moss intimidating as well as enchanting.
I'd like to see if I can make that come out in my photos.
