Description
A black and white image of early morning sunlight shining into the River Huaranilla valley near Chairo on the edge of the Cotapata National Park in Bolivia. This is typical of the many deep forested valleys in Bolivia's subtropical Yungas region, where the eastern slopes of the Andes mountain range drop steeply to the Amazon basin. The abrupt changes in altitude and climate make these areas among the most biodiverse on the planet, with many distinct forest ecoregions. Cotapata National Park is one of several Parks in Bolivia that have Andean cloud forests within their boundaries.

This is a superb B&W rendition of the scene, James! The featureless black regions only add to the drama of the whole. Favourite!

In addition to the banner, I am adding this more permanent recognition of its FEATURE on the homepage of A TREE OR TREES IN BLACK AND WHITE. I try mightily to feature only images that would be at home in a juried competition. No doubt that this image fits that bill. CONGRATULATIONS! And consider adding your image to DISCUSSIONS "Please post your featured photograph here" for greater, long-lasting visibility.
