          The straightened one for me too as it looks more 'normal' but I do like the dramatic sky in the last one.

          Cheers,
          John

              Second option works for me. The last pair rather look like effects used for the sake of it.

              It's a pleasant shot on a nice day. If you want a more dramatic scene then I think you'll need to wait for more dramatic weather...

                Second for me too. Effect on last 2 a bit too much for me.

                If anything would drop highlights on the second to maybe get a bit of detail back in the clouds.

                  Have to agree second one with the more natural feel to it but just shows what can be done .

                    Re: Eglwys Oen Duw Church, variations.

                    Yes the second one for me too. I shot something similar recently with the light kinda so so and converted it to mono and it worked for me.

                          The second shot is the best and most natural looking one

                            Andy, the second for me, but then I do rather obsessively straighten all my building shots.
                            Of the two heavily processed ones I prefer the warmth of the stone colour of the last, but think the dramatic effect would be accentuated by going mono.

                              Mono? Certainly sir.

                              I find this less pleasing, to be honest.
