A very nice Autumnal set, I like all and choosing a favourite is difficult, but the first and last stand out.

Thank you all for the comments, appreciated. I have been playing with RT to try and improve the shots but TBH there is very little in scope for me anyway. So here is a shot from my efforts today.

"How are you finding that 11-18? "

It is a brilliant lens, I am using more often, actually used the Focus lock button last night. I have pre-set infinity focus in daylight and locked it, as I can't do this in the dark, very useful.

Just got back with these pics, brilliant night sky for astro, so rushed these out - couldn't help myself
I know there is room for improvement but I'm excited about these......

No great sunset but had a play with evening light, all straight out of camera [no TLA's there].
Last three appear darker on here for some strange reason

1. This one only is in HDR - SOOC.

Thank you all for the comments and tips, very informative and useful.
I did use RT's graduated filter on some of the pics, but strangely not all, even though I copied all settings and re-applied/pasted to the next raw file - mostly, then adjust around again.
RT contrast for me is better in LAB using the slider rather than in 'Exposure' tab, but I have also found I can slightly increase a bit more in GIMP afterwards without detriment (I use GIMP to scale down the pic for the forum) - IMHO anyway.

RobL; thanks for the tip on neutral grey The path was open but had signage by the Wood saying "Please Walk around NOT through" and directed you to the path around the top.

A few from yesterday up on Dartmoor, these ancient Oak trees are covered in Lichen and the greens were stunning when patches of sunlight hit them. All comments welcome especially with any improvement suggestions, probably my PP could be one! I cooled the colour temp on the last one as it looked too Red, and probably ruined it.
