2012, Day 94 - Sunset robbery

Tonight's photo was taken last night with Brian Matiash along Portland's scenic waterfront.  The skies were so rich and the colors vibrant but playing with the photos for a while I decided to see what it would look like in black and white.  I was so pleased with the results that I didn't mind losing the color in the sky because there is more than enough texture to make up for its absence.  In this case less is more and I am quite taken with the results.
