PP Challenge #351

Welcome to Post Processing Challenge #351!
I will let this run for a week so you have until the 29th November to submit your entries.

Thanks to photocles for hosting the last round and selecting me as winner.

One from last week on a rare sunny November day so I headed up to the Peak District to make the most of it. I like using telephotos for landscapes so I took the DA* 300mm for an outing which can be a challenge sometimes but its one I enjoy, this was shot on a tripod but the wind was pretty fierce and its a bit soft when you go pixel peeping.
Pretty much as big as hills get around here (at 559m it is the highest point in East Cheshire and no 5 in the Peak District) this is Shining Tor as seen from the edge of Lyme Park.

Wow, I've never needed to do PP with a vacuum cleaner before.

To anyone having a go this week, don't worry too much about the dirt in the sky, had I realised it was that bad beforehand I would of picked something else. Remove it if you want but I won't mark anyone down for leaving it in.

Wonderful landscape!

Just playing around with some tools and filters; Some basic adjustments, then Analog Efex, then Silver Efex, then a slab of split toning.

Incoming...

Interestingly, the sky only looked blown out in the B&W version after I saved it as a JPEG. I'm not going back to fix it now, though.
