You Keep Me Wild With Your Rivers and Mountains! (Black & White, Denali National Park & Preserve)

An image captured at the Teklanika Rest Overlook and Stop with a view looking across the braided river to ridgelines and distant peaks of the Alaska Range within Denali National Park & Preserve. By angling my Nikon SLR camera slightly downward, I was able to create what I felt was a more sweeping view across this river valley to the distant peaks. I did some initial post-processing work making adjustments to contrast, brightness and saturation while playing around as I learned how to work with DxO PhotoLab 3. I was then able to work with the ClearView tool to clear up some of the haze still present that early afternoon from the recent wildfires in that area. I finally performed a conversion to black & white using DxO PhotoLab 3 where I made some adjustments to color filters to bring out a much richer tonal contrast for the final image.
