Here is another Nik Silver Efex shot taken of Skiddaw. I would appreciate your comments as I find there is so much one can do and change with this plugin.

    Hi Bob,

    I have to say that I am not seeing much difference between this version and the other b/w, except that maybe it looks more sepia toned. What is it supposed to be doing? headscratch.gif

    Thanks for looking Schmoo. I thought I would do this image from a previous image I posted in colour to see if it was better in B & W.

    Bob, if you don't mind some creative counseling, I would suggest a bit more tonality separation on the mountain layers and from the sky. Do you use Nik's Viviza plug-in by chance? It is a great way to localize separation in certain areas of your photo.

    How about posting the pre-effect image next to the one in the original post?

    I don't mind at all Pezpix I need all the help I can get. I have downloaded the plug-in. Can you give me any directions on the best way to go about adding more tonality separation on the mountain layers and the sky. Thanks for your kind help.
    Regards

    Hi Dave, was this the image you wanted? This was the original image I changed to black and white.
