I really like the way you were able to bring out the full tonality and wet reflections in your image; nicely done. Was this SOOC, or did you do much correction in post?

Many thanks John, that shot could have been done out of camera with a Ricoh GRII, the best camera for B&W tones I've ever used. But it was taken with a GRIII, a newer camera but IMHO not as good as the GRII for mono files. So with that shot I did what I often do with III files to try and get them looking like II files which is apply the Kodachrome 64 preset in Silver Effects Pro and color filter approprite to the image, I think this one would have been either red or orange filter. I'm guessing Kodachrome 64 should be more suited to images shot in sunny daylight but it does work on a lot of Night images when adding a touch of structure to the image in Silver Effects Pro.
