Hi Richard,
I like the threatening sky on this one.....But I love to see the mono version also.
Yeah, yeah......I know, I must be related to a girl called Lilly
Martin.

Personally I'd prefer the colour one with a bit less saturation. I think the grass and brickwork is just too vivid. Also in B&W the fir tree seems to more or less block up and even in colour I think I'd try and selectively lighten it - in fact if I can fix my chain saw I'll lend it to you

As expected I like the last one the most. And indeed lifting up the greens in the mono version (kind of IR effect) would make the latter even stronger.
But hey.....just personal taste of course

It looked like this, i then took five exposures from it using Photomatix and then touched it up in Photoshop.

Well the HDR certainly made a difference, I'm not sure I'd feel it's an improvement though. I'm not clear what benefits the HDR has given in this case?

It's made it look more like a painting than a photograph

I'm not convinced it does that and anyway I'm not sure why anyone would want a photograph to look like a painting but that's just me of course.
I visit a critique site photosig a bit and there people will say 'wow it looks like a painting' as if this is something good. I just don't get it.
