Magical Tryfan
Lens: smc PENTAX-DA* 1:1.4 55mm SDM Camera: Pentax K20D 

A view of Tryfan from the Glyders on a beautiful day in Snowdonia in April 2009.
Look closely at the (middle) peak and you'll see Adam and Eve, the two tall monolithic rocks at the summit that provide an extra challenge once you've climbed the mountain—climb up on top and jump between the two!

The image was taken as RAW DNG, processed through only through Lightroom:
Converted to B&W by setting all the colour saturation sliders to -100 then adjusting the relative colour-channel contrast with the luminance sliders. This allows you to mimic the old film method of applying a coloured filter over the lens when using black and white film, but with a great deal more flexibility! Thanks to Martin Evening for that great B&W Lightroom tip from way back when.
