Very stark. I don't know how I feel about the blue cast. I'd almost rather see clean black and white.

Yes, I would like to see it in B&W

Much better. IMO there is a really great image here, from a slightly different view point - down nearer the hut and looking towards the trig point. I don’t suppose you’ll be popping by that way some day soon!
I also had a quick tweak of your image using a plug in called Perfect Effects 4 free, which is free. Less than a couple of minutes work. Working with a small file so limited effect but does add a bit more punch, I think. I am sure that many will think different.[attachment=2039]

Looks great, have a similar preset in LR.. Couldnt really remember where it was as we stopped in a random spot to blow the tyres back to road worthiness but considering another trip. Will post again soon..

Thx M
I'm not sure about this one.

When I saw the first post it almost made me shiver with the cold, and I think that was due to the blue tone. Although I like the B&W, it doesn't have quite that same impact in embracing the title of the thread. But then after a while it became annoying that the blue was in the sky and the hut but not on the ground, so I wondered about a B&W with a hint of blue toning throughout -

Those sharpening and tone mapping effects really improve this I think. But the black and white looks better than the blue cast in my opinion.
Yet another. Ed.
This does the trick!

I like ur thoughts and rework, all ideas so far have equal merits
