I don’t normally do black and white but when I was processing this image in Lightroom it felt like the right thing to do. The original had a very muted colour palette to the extent it was virtually grey scale to start with. After applying a few tweaks this is the result.
I’m not overly pleased with the result though. It doesn’t feel as though this is the final image yet so any suggestions more than welcome. Alternatives and original image after the jump.
