Doug's take included converting the image to B&W and adding sepia toning. The new version pretty much follows both ideas with a bit for sky darkening added by using the blue slider, slightly less toning, and the addition of a bit of vignetting. (Thanks to you both.) http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/rtaylor/PICKS/England_2009/sm_-aldebaugh_merge.jpg.html or http://tinyurl.com/yzwmsad Here's another pano, this one from Mistley. The first is minimally adjusted to emphasize the flat, foggy atmosphere. The second is more aggressively adjusted, like the new Aldeburh pano, to make it punchier.
