Are you sure that's supposed to be using HDR?
Looks more like some sort of stylized "art filter" or some such applied in PS.

That is what I have been using, but as I said I have only dabbled in B&W conversions so far.Cameron Yee said:Lightroom seems highly recommended for black and white conversions too.
The composition on that shot doesn't work well for me, John. The fence is trying to provide a visual path to lead the eyes, but with the trees being so big and centered it loses that effect. Maybe if the shot had been opened up some more on the left and with the sky it would have worked better for me.JohnRice said:I took this one last week and wasn't happy with it in color, but I decided to give it a try in B&W today. I think I like it, but for some reason I feel a little guilty about that. I can't decide if it's actually a good composition, or just a catchy shot that's not particularly special. I tend to think it would make a nice, large, gallery wrap giclee.
