[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
The bridge of Maddiangat was swept away by the rush of water that came from the mountains. Here, we see the force of nature that when unleashed, it causes everything that must move, to move. Water is, an awesome force to reckon with. The tree trunks are used as planks by the local folk to walk across to the other side.

I had to wait for the water to subside a bit for a few days and build mini dikes along the river to make the water flow slower and enable the Revo to drive down the river and get up on the other side safely. This bridge will be repaired perhaps in a few years...and I am not kidding.

PP work: converted to black and white, unsharp mask,
and used a photo filter to tone in the sepia.

This is a very good image of what a typhoon can do. The composition is very good. Converting it to B&W made it very interesting to look at. TFS, idol!

interesting PP here with the grainy look raul :)
the tones look good
maybe a little too much grain? it could be from the sharpening :)

Hi Raul,

Very good B/W. POV and composition are excellent. However I feel the image is a bit sharp (too). TFS
