Hidden Behind an Old Tree (Arches National Park)

I captured this image using a monochrome setting with LiveView on my Nikon SLR camera. I liked the idea of this as a tool to focus on tonal contrasts and shapes while composing images. The article I got this idea for this was here (digital-photography-school.com/how-to-use-monochrome-prev...). As I'd followed the writer's idea in capturing these with RAW images, it was then easy to update the settings in Capture NX2 to a landscape one and work in color for the final image.
