Its not too often than I'm able to get this kind of tonal range
suggestions for improvement, in terms of both post processing but also cropping before I print?

It helps to use our terms correctly.
Something with a greater dynamic range is brighter at its b4ight end and darker at its dark end than is something of a lesser dynamic range.
Something of a given range with a greater spectrum has a greater number of steps of grey between the bright end and the dark end than does something with a lesser spectrum but equal range.
The image you posted has a great tonal range, but is of a very limited tonal spectrum.
