Up on top of the peaks

Whilst the week has seen plenty of sun I got one day off and it was moody. Top walk though:

Cracking shots, would like to see them in high contrast black and white especially number 2.

afraid these do nothing for me, too much foreground esp when you've got such a moody sky.

The first and third are good, the foreground works, but I can see what Ridg is saying about the foreground in the second and forth shots. In both of them the bottom 1/4 does very little and you wouldn't lose anything by cropping that out.

With the second shot, the rocks against the sky is the most interesting part, I would want to make that more prominent.

Kinda didn't do what I intended then 
It was meant to show the sheer bulk of size of the rocks with no2 with the back rocks in contrast to foreground. I've taken a shot previously with the rocks as the sole emphasis and wanted to try summat different. I also thought the angle of rock and angle of clouds were interesting lines against the horizontal standing stones. 

I do know what you mean about the last one. Suppose its more about me capturing summat you have to know n have seen to make sense of the desolation up on the top. Cheers for feedback tho guys. More than you get on Flickr at times. "Great capture"

I'm kinda not too good with B&W processing, so will give it a butchers TJG...not sure if I will get it looking right tho.

You know, these actually look much better large. Viewing in on Flickr with the black background does wonders.
