    As was said, WOW!!!! This is an amazing shot, and you have made it this way with your perfect PP technique, and choice of b&w for this.
    Reality is a nice place to visit, but I wouldn't want to live there!

    Surely. I brought the raw file into Capture NX 2 and there it got just the rudimentary adjustments to WB and levels as well as making use of various noise reduction features. Saved that as a tiff and then went into Silver Efex 2 and selected the High Structure Smooth pre-set. I applied the orange filter and adjusted it to the strength that suited me. After that, I tweaked the sliders for amplifying both whites and blacks as well as soft contrast and dynamic brightness. I applied the lightest coffee tone and the least amount of lens fall off. I then went to my orton preset that I built and have used for a couple of years. Reduced the opacity of that layer by 50%. Lastly, I sharpened and dodged/burned as I saw fit.

    I really wish I had used a CP filter to help reduce the glare on the foliage, but if you guys like it then I'm happy enough with it like it is. This old road will be there for some time to come. It's the old dead trees on the beach that won't withstand many more hurricanes before they've fallen.
