By shooting into the light contrast is auto increased and can give that 3 dimensional look, at least i think it does :-( only contrast grading and sharpening used to get this effect

    Martin I always love your b/w landscape images! bowdown.gif

    I wouldn't have known you were shooting into the light here. I love the misty look and the great ripples in the foreground grass, and the drama in the sky is great. thumb.gif

    I'm a sucker for good monochromes - nice job! The composition is pleasing and I do like the contrast. The clouds are great. Well done.
