Black and White Instead of Green

This image of Rough Lock Falls in Spearfish Canyon was made in August when most of the grass, shrubs and trees are green. It’s pleasant to look at in person but doesn’t photograph particularly well without some directional light (which there wasn’t when I took this shot). Black and white on the other hand plays up the contrast between the shadows and highlights more effectively giving the image a grungy pop.
