Love the various tones, Ramesh and how it might appear on a baryta paper.

Nice. A piece of the "Rain" forest. Give us a sense of what you were surrounded by

I too love the variation in tones and how you have managed it! Tfs.

Love the tones and the contrast.

However, This monsoon setting is always elusive for me in b/w. If I may say, it looks a bit harsh and takes away the mood of the monsoon.

Thanks Ganesh, Raj, Sarthak and Adithya for your views.

Adithya, monsoon has many moods. Dark, foggy, wet, slushy, muggy, gloomy, etc etc. Brilliance and radiance are also surprisingly among the moods of monsoon. After a downpour, when gloominess lifts, nature brightens up and walks out of a fresh shower/bath, all soaking wet. This moment lasts for a short while till dark clouds loom and set the stage for another downpour. This image was made in those momentary respites...
