When looking for subjects for monochrome photos, I usually look for lots of lines and texture.  However, I decided to try something different this week.  I think this sunset has enough content for a monochrome photo.  I love how the monochrome version emphasizes the sun rays.  It’s almost like you can see the bright golden color of the sun just peaking over the trees.

A calm evening after a spring thunderstorm results in a glorious sunset reflecting off the water of Lake Kiowa.  Lake Kiowa is a small lake about an hour north of Dallas.

Do you like monochrome photos? Do you still see the colors of the sunset when you look at this photo?
