I have already submitted an image from this place with a slightly different composition and already edited this particular composition as a b&w. BUT i have just discovered lightroom and i have to say i have fallen for it big time...... probably to my detrement...it is a superbly fluid and useable programme which speeds up processing of images.

It also offers more 'styles' of editing images , which is why i say ' probably to my detrement '..because i like to flit about with my editing of images.....i wish in some way i was able to edit images with a specific style as say stuart does - [link] or as thierry does [link] but im afraid i am not focused enough to acheive this.

I enjoy the scope of being able to edit an image such as this one completely differently to any other in my gallery. I suppose it is a consequensce of the digital age......any way your thoughts would be appreciated....

p.s and yes before anyone kindly points it out, reading this back i do realise i just typed that i have fallen for a piece of software.....'big time'......i dont get out much....

edit.....well thank you everyone who has enjoyed this image and commented on it..... and a big thank you to [link] for suggesting this image as a DD, and to [link] for featuring it

This IS a beautiful shot, but has anyone pointed out that this is not the look one gets from Selenium toning? This is a Cyanotype effect. I see it mislabeled as Selenium on Flickr, quite often, and I don't know what LightRoom calls it, but Selenium produces a range of brown tones, from reddish-brown to purplish-brown. It can also produce a very neutral black-and-white tone. It can't produce these blue tones. Not looking to start a fight, here, just trying to curb the spread of misinformation.

For accurate information, you could start with the manufacturers of Selenium toners, Ilford and Kodak.

well im sorry to tell you its the look of selenium toning in lightroom 2.5....if youve never used lightroom then how would you know how their selenium action works?
being an element and not a colour i'd suspect its colour is open to representation....
glad you like the shot...thanks for your input....

That's what I said; I don't know what Lightroom calls it. But, it's still wrong. And the color does vary, but not that much.
