Nice pastoral landscape. I think I would add a little extra contrast but that's just me.

Thanks. Probably with more contrast I would have to add more highlights, whites and shadow.

Thanks panos_adgr . To be honest i didn’t paid too much attention to the clouds when I took this picture . You can achieve some nice images with clear sky as well.

When the sky is clear blue and contrast is high, I switch to black & white which I think can be effective in harsh light.

Thanks for the tip, never tried it. Might try it on my next trip. I usually edit and adjust everything during the editing .

I save a both jpeg and RAW so can get a colour version if I prefer. The B&W jpeg gives me a guide for RAW conversion too.

I shoot only in Raw, if I need a black and white, I usually use filters from Lightroom. But B&W is not really my style. Very rare when I take bw photo.

I used to do it with B&W film + red filter. Nice times. Ilford FP4 Plus 125 was and still is my favourite B&W negative. I used to load it only in my Nikon FM2.

Those were the days. I sometimes wish I still had my darkroom. There's nothing quite like hand printing and watching the magic happen in the chemical trays! Yes, FP4 a film of choice.
