Still trying different conversions to B&W but feel that I am getting somewhere (at last) - also trying different sharpening approaches.
This is the first picture I have processed from a recent visit to Penshurst Place - a privately owned home we went to as part of my wife's ancestor history investigations (and no - her ancestors didn't used to own it - one of them worked there)
The unreduced version looks better than the one reduced for posting but I think you can see some of what I was trying to achieve:
- no blown out bits of sky
- details in the clouds
- good texture with lots of different shades of grey
so hopefully it doesn't look 'flat' but has some 'pop'.
But if you think it still isn't a good rendition and that I haven't managed to get it almost right then happy to hear constructive, reasoned criticism, as always.
