I'm not so much suffering a creative drought at the moment but rather I haven't had a chance to get out and shoot some new stuff!
This is the same shot as seen here, but converted to B&W with a hint of an infrared filter to provide some atmosphere!
Due to the fact that I'll be working on site in Scotland for the forseeable future, I probably won't be able to respond to comments straight away, but will try my best, and will definitely get back to you eventually!
As always, feedback and constructive criticism will be greatly appreciated!

@eddy: Thanks Eddy
In this case, I believe the B&W is more effective.

Very dramatic!

@Steven: Thanks Steven
I do like the b/w more for the drama. The b/w really gives it that fantastical atmosphere... but I think it needs less foreground because of the b/w... more of a panoramic crop?

@amy: Thanks for the feedback Amy, I do disagree with you on both points, I prefer both the colour shot and the amount of foreground in the image, but it's always nice to get another view! Panoramic crop seems to be your words for the week! :)
I really do like this in b&w, although the sky is nowhere near as effective in this as it is in the colour version.

@pLusOne: Thanks pLusOne
Like the BW, prefer the original colour though. You should try a free photoshop plugin called Virtual photographer, it allows you to play around with some interesting bw effects, which could be fun with this shot.

Great black and white shot, the sun sort of dwarfs the mysterious stones.
