Another image of part of the limestone pavement geological feature at Ystradfellte near Neath in S. Wales UK.

This was taken and processed at the same time as the one I uploaded a few days ago, I just resized it for this website, I didn't tone this one.

Nice lead and forground anchor . Try a different mono conversion , there may be more to extract out of this nicely composed vista .

Good subject for B/W... and I quite like the treatment of the conversion, I would however (bare in mind I know nowt about landscape) prefer a lower viewpoint without the fields and trees, just the 'pavement' and the lone tree against that sky....

very nice image showing the rugged landscape off, the black and white works well

Very nice image but for me it is just a bit too dark on the upper half. Personally I'd lighten the upper half a tad and then darken the foreground which for me would create a slightly better balance. Tristan
