Last batch of photos from Newfoundland

Finally! I've finished processing the last photos from Newfoundland. This batch consists of 20 photos from our boat cruise on Western Brook Pond. The "pond" is actually a landlocked fjord, 30km in length and perhaps a few kilometres wide at the mouth, with 2000' cliffs of four billion year-old granite (Consider that Earth itself is "only" 10 billion years old). Pretty amazing stuff. It's no wonder Gros Morne is a UNESCO World Heritage site. The cruise is a must do for anyone visiting the park.

I've been working on some new techniques for processing my photos, especially black and white conversions. I'm applying a more liberal amount of dodging and burning, maintaing the full scale of luminances but trying to add more drama and emphasis to match what I originally felt when I made the photo. There will be a few more galleries posted over the next couple weeks where I hope to display some of the results. Please feel free to comment on anything you like or dislike!
