Hi Robert. I hate to complain, but i think you posted the thumbnail. The image is very small but from what i can make out, it looks good.

It looks great Robert, but can you either give us a link to a bigger version, or post it here? Really hard to tell how good it is at this size!

(Check out the forum FAQ for size restrictions though - I think 800 wide is the limit?)

Also, as you're asking about the PP, maybe you could tell us the main bits you have done to it - that way it's a learning exercise for all of us

Keeping it small was a ploy so you couldnt make out the problems!! only joking, it was my first image post and hopefully have fixed that now.

My main post processing was to convert to b&w and increase contrast in a few areas, as well as lighten a few areas of shadow/cloud shadow.

The bits I'm not sure about is the toning of a few sections- the mountain, the beach and the shed. I just did this by selecting and adjusting hue when the colorize box is ticked.

here is the original (hopefully!!)
